Apply a Service Level Agreement profile
An SLA profile may be simultaneously applied to:
- compatible elements in User Paths, and;
- scenarios.
The button allowing linking to an SLA profile is displayed when the selected element in the User Path tree is compatible.

Elements and non-applicable SLAs
If an element is linked to an SLA profile containing SLAs that are incompatible with the element, the incompatible SLAs are ignored for that particular element. The other, compatible SLAs are evaluated.
For example: an SLA profile containing the Request average response time SLA is linked to a Container. This SLA only applies to requests. It will not be evaluated for Containers.
