Pressing the PF11 key from the System Overview screen causes the Thresholds screen to be displayed. Threshold settings determine which statistics will be highlighted on the system overview screen, and which will be the subject of messages sent by the background monitor (SirMon background monitor), when it is active.

Threshold specification screen

Threshold values may be specified for any statistic which appears on the system overview screen. The top half of the screen lists two sets of statistics that can be monitored for total values, per-second values, and per-screen values. The bottom half of the screen lists three sets of statistics that can be monitored for total values only.

Any statistic with a blank in the corresponding threshold value will never be highlighted on the system overview screen, and it will be ignored by the SirMon background monitor.

The PF12 key saves the threshold settings to disk. The PF2 key provides access to the Background Monitor screen.
