Abstract

A method for dynamically modifying thresholds for computer system alerts is provided. The method includes receiving alert notification criteria based on an initial set of threshold parameters including an initial set of rules and initial threshold values for monitored metrics associated with a computer system, monitoring the computer system for current values for the monitored metrics, determining calculated threshold values for the monitored metrics based on a statistical analysis between the current values for the monitored metrics and the initial set of threshold parameters, and modifying the alert notification criteria based on one or more of the calculated threshold values and at least one of an initial alert notification criteria rule or a user instruction to modify the alert notification criteria. The initial set of rules includes one or more attributes and one or more schedules.
