IBM Tivoli Monitoring V6.3 Implementation — Question 71

A company wants to trigger a PM based on a characteristic type meter.
How can this be accomplished?

Answer options

• A. Create a master PM and link to the characteristic on the Related Records tab.
• B. Create a condition monitoring point and specify the PM on the upper or lower limit.
• C. Create a PM against the asset and specify the meter on the Frequency tab of the PM.
• D. Create an escalation based on the characteristic meter and trigger the PM via an action.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because creating a condition monitoring point allows for the specification of limits that, when reached, can trigger the PM. Options A, C, and D do not directly facilitate the triggering of a PM based on the specific meter characteristic as effectively as option B does.
