Hello everyone,
We're looking to start customizing the Automatic Incident Tracking configuration to assist our users in finding linked alarms to an incident.
I've come across a configuration in the documentation meant to achieve this, but there's a specific parameter I do not understand.
We want to use an element property named "Station" and automatically fill it from the Equipment location. So we need to replace "property_name" by "element.station"
In the documentation, we found the following:
<item type="skyline::dataminer::analytics::workers::configuration::GenericElementPropertyVisitorConfiguration"> <enable>true</enable> <threshold>[THRESHOLD]</threshold> <name>[PROPERTY_NAME]</name> </item>
There's a threshold value (for example, a found value of 0.75 in a configuration of our DMA),
However, when this property's value is text, I don't understand why we need to set a threshold.
Is it to evaluate the accuracy of the comparison in case of partial correspondence ?
How can we use it?
Thanks in advance for your help
Hi Alexandre,
You have indeed located the right info in the documentation.
The name of the property does not need to include the property type, that is already known to dataminer by the time you type "GenericElementPropertyVisitorConfiguration". In your specific case, the item will need to look like
The threshold you noticed is a built-in safety measure to avoid grouping unrelated alarms too fast. Alarms for elements with the same property value will only be grouped if the proportion of elements in alarm among all elements with that property value is greater than this threshold.
For example, assuming you set a threshold of 0.5, then alarms from elements under the same station will only be grouped if at least 50% of all elements belonging to that specific station are into alarm. The lower the threshold, the quicker the grouping mechanism will be triggered.
I hope this clears your doubts. Do not hesitate to reach out with more questions if you have any.
May be the property name need to be like : [PROPERTY:ELEMENT:Station] ?
