    How to fix this error?

    You can specify the limits of thresholds by performing the following
    procedure:
    Specify a positive number for the upper limit of the warning threshold.
    Specify a greater positive number for the upper limit of the alert
    threshold.
    Specify a negative number for the lower limit of the warning threshold.
    Specify a negative number that has a greater absolute value for the
    lower limit of the alert threshold.
    Note the following:
    If you specify zero for a limit of a threshold, the system ignores it.
    If you specify numbers with the same sign (plus or minus) for both
    limits of a threshold, the system uses the number with the greater
    absolute value as the threshold.
