  - ### getDerivedGauge

    @Deprecated Number getDerivedGauge()
    Deprecated.
    As of JMX 1.2, replaced by `getDerivedGauge(ObjectName)`
    Gets the derived gauge.
    Returns:
      The derived gauge.

  - ### getDerivedGaugeTimeStamp

    @Deprecated long getDerivedGaugeTimeStamp()
    Deprecated.
    As of JMX 1.2, replaced by `getDerivedGaugeTimeStamp(ObjectName)`
    Gets the derived gauge timestamp.
    Returns:
      The derived gauge timestamp.

  - ### getDerivedGauge

    Number getDerivedGauge(ObjectName object)
    Gets the derived gauge for the specified MBean.
    Parameters:
      `object` - the MBean for which the derived gauge is to be returned
    Returns:
      The derived gauge for the specified MBean if this MBean is in the set of observed MBeans, or `null` otherwise.

  - ### getDerivedGaugeTimeStamp

    long getDerivedGaugeTimeStamp(ObjectName object)
    Gets the derived gauge timestamp for the specified MBean.
    Parameters:
      `object` - the MBean for which the derived gauge timestamp is to be returned
    Returns:
      The derived gauge timestamp for the specified MBean if this MBean is in the set of observed MBeans, or `null` otherwise.

  - ### getHighThreshold

    Number getHighThreshold()
    Gets the high threshold value.
    Returns:
      The high threshold value.

  - ### getLowThreshold

    Number getLowThreshold()
    Gets the low threshold value.
    Returns:
      The low threshold value.

  - ### setThresholds

    void setThresholds(Number highValue, Number lowValue) throws IllegalArgumentException
    Sets the high and the low threshold values.
    Parameters:
      `highValue` - The high threshold value.
      `lowValue` - The low threshold value.
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - The specified high/low threshold is null or the low threshold is greater than the high threshold or the high threshold and the low threshold are not of the same type.

  - ### getNotifyHigh

    boolean getNotifyHigh()
    Gets the high notification's on/off switch value.
    Returns:
      `true` if the gauge monitor notifies when exceeding the high threshold, `false` otherwise.
