Naming Conventions

Use the Interface Point Naming Conventions page to establish conventions used when creating points with the ICU. Any naming mask must have either the Interface Service Name ([if service]) or the Interface Service Display Name ([if display name]) in it, since these settings are applied across all interfaces, and names must have something unique in them.

The Interface Point Naming Convention is used by ICU to name the various points that it creates, if these points do not already exist:

• I/O rate points

• Interface Status Utility points

• UniInt performance points and UniInt health points

• Performance counter points

The default behavior is to use the machine name followed by the interface service name. The arrow button can be used to display the naming options for each type of point:

• IORates Tag Prefix

• Machine Name

• Interface Service Name

• Interface Service Display Name

• Period

• Space

• Underscore
