Semaphores

Da itm wiki.

Semaphores are used for projects and services. They are a set of metrics each used to monitor a particular aspect of the status of a project (project semaphore) or service (service semaphore). Threshold values shall be defined for each semaphore and are used in reports and messages.

Sempahore Monitored aspect Thresholds
Alert threshold for number of issues with HIGH criticality This metric monitors the project issues categorized as critical. Number of project issues categorized with Criticality Level equal to "High". The alert is raised if the threshold is achieved or passed.
Alert threshold for number of non-resolved issues This metric monitors the project issues still opened. Number of project issues with Close Flag set to "False". This value shall be greater than the alert level for Warning threshold for number of non-resolved  issues.

The alert is raised if the threshold is achieved or passed.

Warning threshold for number of non-resolved  issues This metric monitors the project issues still opened. Number of project issues with Close Flag set to "False". This value shall be minor than the alert level for Alert threshold for number of non-resolved issues.
Percentage alert threshold for cost This metric monitors the total costs of a project or service which is managed in estimations. Depending on context or choice, the calculation may be based on the current estimation (the one in project or service Estimation tab) or the estimation related to the last executed milestone or review. Percentage (a number in the range 0-100) of cost deviation from budgeted value (in estimation). This value shall be greater than the Percentage warning threshold for cost. The alert is raised if the threshold is achieved or passed and the .

Percentage alert threshold for delay This metric monitors the total delay (number of days) of the project or service. The calculation is based on the initially expected and currently forecast end dates (see tab General of projects and services) Number of days calculated
