Configuring Difference Thresholds

Difference thresholds monitor a metric and alert when the difference of the metric value between windows deviates from a specified absolute value or percentage value for consecutive windows. You can also configure Fixed Thresholds for simple comparison operations against a specified value. The following table lists the parameters for configuring a difference threshold. Configuration options differ depending on the type of validator.

Parameter Name	Parameter Value	Validator Type
