Appliance resource utilization policies

This pair of policies analyzes and identifies Appliances as having either normal or high resource utilization.

These policies identify how effectively Appliances actually utilize their resources, irrespective of whether Appliance specifications are found compliant by Appliance Load Compliance Policies.

• Appliance Resource Utilization Analysis Policy. This policy analyzes various factors related to Appliance resource utilization and determines whether they are within an acceptable range, based on testing performed by Forescout. For example, factors like CPU usage, disk latency, packet loss, and others. Each factor is a separate sub-rule in the policy.

  Appliances that do not fall into the acceptable range for any one of the factors are added to the Appliances - High Resource Utilization group, which is used by the Appliance Resource Utilization policy to identify Appliances as having either or normal resource consumption.

  This policy's sub-rules use Health Monitoring - Resource Utilization properties.
