3 crossed warning (0) or critical ( ) threshold.

This problem happens only after the gridctrl server starts up. The EM Website was available from 17:32:14 (nearly six (6) minutes after the alert was generated).

It would appear that the EM Agent is trying to collect statistics from the EM Website but the target has not been brought online yet.

This is something I will have to live with.
