Creating or editing alert actions

To create a new Alert Action or edit an existing Alert Action:

1.Double-click the Alert Actions icon.

2.Click Add... If you are editing an existing alert action, select it from Alert Action, click Edit, and proceed to step 4 .

3.Select the alert notification method for this action from the Add Alert Action window, and click OK.

4.Specify the notification information for this alert action.

For detailed notification method-specific instructions, see “Advanced View: Creating Alert Actions” on page 112.

5.Click OK to save your changes. The saved alert action appears in the list of defined alert actions, and is available for use in your Alert Profile.

If you create an Alert Action for a specific pod and subsequently remove and delete that pod from your appliance, you must manually remove the alert actions that were associated with that pod.

Alert Profile

Use the Alert Profile icon to customize your appliance default alert notification policy, or to create additional alert notification policies. Alert policies define the notification actions taken by the appliance in response to alerts. Each Alert Profile consists of one or more Alert Sequences. An Alert Sequence specifies:

The period of time that must pass before an alert condition results in notification

The number of times the notification is repeated if the alert condition is not corrected

The time interval at which the notification is enacted

One or more alert actions that are part of the Alert Sequence notification process

The schedule that determines whether the Alert Sequence is active at the date and time the alert occurs

Capture settings that can override specific alert-action attributes, such as including graphs or image captures with alert notifications

You can also use the Alert Profile icon to temporarily disable all alert notifications globally associated with an Alert Profile.
