Alerts & Monitoring

A moment can cross the line. An alert waits until it stays there.

Choose a server metric, set the threshold, and decide how long the condition must continue. If that configured condition is met, FocalShift Ai sends an email to your account address.

MetricThresholdDurationAccount email
01 / Choose the signal

Four server metrics. One clear starting point.

Create a policy around CPU, memory, disk, or one-minute load. Each policy watches one selected metric for the server in your FocalShift view.

CPU
Memory
Disk
Load (1 min)

CPU selected for this illustration.

One metric per policyThe alert form selects one supported metric.

One server contextThe policy is bound to the member’s server in the current view.

Your decisionYou choose the threshold and sustained window.

02 / Set the line. Give it time.

A crossing begins the condition. Staying there completes it.

The current rule uses “greater than,” a whole-number threshold from 1 through 100, and one of four sustained windows. The threshold is yours—not a universal recommendation.

%

Threshold ready. Choose the duration.

Email me when CPU is greater than 80% for 10 minutes.
03 / Read the rule plainly

If you cannot read it, it should not interrupt you.

Metric tells FocalShift Ai what to evaluate. Threshold defines the line. Duration decides whether the configured condition lasted long enough. The destination is the valid email address on your account.

04 / Honest states

A quiet list should still tell the truth.

The current view can show Active or Paused policies, an honest empty state, or an unavailable list. Paused is a state the list can display; this page does not claim a pause or resume control.

Active

The returned policy is enabled.

Paused

The returned policy is not enabled. No pause/resume action is promised here.

No alerts yet

No policies are currently listed for the selected server. That is not the same as “all clear.”

Unavailable

FocalShift Ai could not load the policy list. Unknown remains unknown.

Account email needed

Add a valid email address to your profile before creating an email alert.

05 / Delete with consequence

Remove the policy—not the monitoring signal.

Deleting an owned policy requires confirmation. The policy leaves the member’s alert list and future email for that rule stops. The current view offers no undo or restore.

Member-scoped by design

Bound to the server in your authenticated view.

FocalShift resolves the server within the signed-in member context, associates creation with that server, and checks ownership before deletion is allowed.

Authenticated

The management view requires a signed-in member.

Server-bound

The policy belongs to the server in the member view.

Ownership-checked

Deletion is refused when that association is not present.

06 / The deliberate stop

The email starts the human review.

A threshold alert reports that a configured condition was met. It is not a diagnosis, an outage declaration, or an automatic repair. You decide what follows.

Choose the signal. Set the line. Give it time.

Let the condition earn the email.

Create a clear threshold policy for CPU, memory, disk, or one-minute load—and keep the final decision in human hands.
