After you install and configure the plug-ins required by the SAP full screen monitoring, the system reports the collected monitoring data on the Custom Monitoring page of the Cloud Eye console. You only need to create alarm rules in Cloud Eye to view alarm statistics on the SAP Full Screen Monitoring page. For details about customizing monitoring and creating alarm rules, see Using Custom Monitoring.

The Alarm Statistics function takes effect only on the applications that meet the following conditions:

• A monitoring task has been added for the application. For details, see Adding an Application Monitoring Task.
