Im running Hyperic 3.2.1 on over 100 servers(open source version of Hyperic

Im running Hyperic 3.2.1 on over 100 servers(open source version of Hyperic
and added cpuusage metric for my (linux,solaris platforms globaly) by editing
the monitoring Defaults templates. So know I see graphs for all the cpus usage as 1. metric
I would like to create a alert for all the servers I have when cpuusage > 90%.
Is there a way in the open source version of Hyperic 3.2.1 to do this .. I know the Enterprise version could do this easily.. But currently we are running the open source version. Any Help
would be appreciated. . I have metriv viewer set up on the dashboard to show top 10
cpuusage servers , but I would like to automate an alert when cpuusage> 90%.

In addition to what I stated above. Since Im running hyperic open source 3.2.1 , If I create a
group with all the servers(clients) in it ,and set up a single alert using the cpuusage metric,
could I then setup this alert for members of this group when cpuusage for any single member(client)goes over 90% or would this alert only fire off if all the members had cpu > 90% ???

From what I tested I see in open source Hyperic 3.2.1 you cant create an alert for a group.. Only in the Enterprise version
