Default Name/Description Values for Elements

For more information see Setting the Configuration Variables.

NOTE: The format of the Metric Creation Wizard is slightly different in Version 3.

UNDIMENSIONED_METRIC_NAME_PREFIX

Metric Insights defaults element's Name and Description based on the Measurement Interval and Measure Of settings selected when defining a new element; for example, 'Daily Incidents.

The configuration parameter UNDIMENSIONED_METRIC_NAME_PREFIX in Config Variables is initially set to 'Total' and the Undimensioned Metrics are automatically named as follows:

            Name = "Total Daily Incidents"

            Description = "Total Daily Incidents Metric"

If the element is dimensioned, the UNDIMENSIONED_METRIC_NAME_PREFIX is removed and the defaults are as follows:

            Name = "Daily Incidents"

            Description = "Daily Incidents for a Hotels Metric"

NOTE: You can change the UNDIMENSIONED_METRIC_NAME_PREFIX to any values, such as 'Overall' or set it to the empty string.
