Usage Count Information for Thresholds and Datapoints
Last updated on 07 March, 2025The Usage Summary tables provide usage information for monitoring activities and account features that have usage limits such as device monitoring or dynamic thresholds. Each table is devoted to a different aspect of LogicMonitor’s operations.
The following describes usage summary information for thresholds and datapoints:
| Count | Description |
| Complex Datapoints* | A count of complex datapoints in use. You can infer the count of normal datapoints by subtracting this count from the total datapoints count. |
| Dynamic Thresholds | The dynamic threshold count provides both the current number of dynamic thresholds in use as well as the maximum number allowed for your account (only applicable for LogicMonitor Enterprise portals). The number of total current dynamic thresholds represents the number of times your configured dynamic thresholds are potentially evaluated. For example, if a dynamic threshold is configured once, it is inherited across multiple instances, contributing to the total. The maximum number of allowed dynamic thresholds per account is limited to eight per permitted monitored resource (per monitored resource is the total of all monitored devices, cloud and Kubernetes resources, and services). This limit is an aggregate limit, enforced at the account level, not the per-resource level. For example, if your account permits the monitoring of 100 total resources, 800 total dynamic thresholds are permitted across your portal. Note: To see where dynamic thresholds are applied across your portal, run an Alerts Thresholds report, ensuring the Only show custom thresholds option is enabled. For more information, see the Alerts Thresholds report. |
| Total Datapoints* | A count of all datapoints (normal and complex) in use. This count represents the number of times your datapoints are potentially collecting data for a resource. For example, a DataSource with five datapoints that is applied to five total instances will increase this count by 25. |
