For complex monitoring, you can create a "Compound Watch" that uses mathematical expressions. For example, instead of just monitoring free memory, you could create an expression that calculates to monitor the percentage of available resources.

: Use the Watch Editor on Broadcom TechDocs to schedule specific times when the Watch is active (e.g., only during business hours).

To create a new Watch, you must first determine what you want to monitor.

In , a Watch is a powerful feature used to monitor specific attributes of network models and trigger alarms based on custom logic. If you are working within this platform, here is how you can create and configure a Watch feature: 1. Define the Watch Logic

You can customize how often Spectrum "looks" at the data to prevent false alarms:

: Define how frequently the attribute is checked.

: Assign a severity level (Critical, Major, Minor) to the event.

: Choose whether to log the data for historical trend analysis. 4. Advanced: Using Expressions
