Notes

This trigger allows a job to be started if the percentage of available RAM raises above, or drops below, a certain point. The parameters allow for tuning the trigger for the specific machine it is installed on. Exercise caution using this trigger, as it has the potential to cause high resource utilization if you have not tuned the settings well for your given server and start executing a job with heavy resource usage.
