### To Configure Monitor Event Properties

When creating a management rule for a monitor event, follow this procedure in the New Management Rule (Step 2 of 2) page.

Monitoring properties include JSR 77 statistics.

1. Enterthe Observed MBean to monitor.

   Specifies the `javax.management.ObjectName` of a system MBean.

   The Object Name is of the form `domain:type=implementation-class-name,name=implementation-class-name,server=server`, where domain is the JMX Domain where the MBean is registered. To know the Object Name of this MBean, look up the properties of the deployed custom MBean. Remember to add `server=server` at the end of the Object Name. For example, `user:impl-class-name=com.sun.example.mbeans.Memory,name=MemoryMBean,server=server`

2. Specify an attribute of the MBean you want to monitor.

3. Enter a description for this monitoring rule.

4. Specify the granularity, in milliseconds, at which data is collected for this attribute.

   The default is 10000 milliseconds.

5. Specify the monitor type.

   Select from one from the following choices:

   - Counter -- If the monitor is of type `CountMonitor` or the JSR 77 statistic field being monitored is of an integral type containing a count value.

   - Gauge -- If the monitor is of type `GaugeMonitor` or the JSR 77 statistic field being monitored is of an integral type containing a gauge value.

   - String -- If the monitor is of type `StringMonitor`.

6. Specify the action you want performed when the monitored data meets the condition specified in the event type.

7. Select Finish to save your management rule.
