An engineer is configuring the monitoring for a new application server. During the day, the CPU on the server is baselined at approximately 30% utilization.

Which of the following is the BEST method to ensure administrators do not experience message fatigue due to false alerts?
A) Set a different threshold during the batch peak time.
B) Increase the alert time threshold to 65 minutes.
