Change Memory Threshold for just one server

Hello,

I have a windows server that is using greater than 90% of the memory it has and is closer to 93% on a regular basis.  Right now, for this server, we are OK with that.   How can I update the setting for just this server?   If I update the threshold, all the servers get the lower threshold.

Thanks

OK, I think I have a solution for now.

I selected the Device template, went to the Action menu and select 'Override Template Here'

When the message box popped up, I selected the Device template and now it says 'Device (Locally Defined)

Now when I update the Memory threshold no other machines get the setting.   

I can imagine applying this to a folder would be better if it were for several machines.

Exactly the right method.  If this eventually becomes redundant then you can simply delete the local template and it will revert to inheriting that  template from the device class hierarchy.

Cheers,
Jane
