94 Configuration: Event Monitor
Enabling or Disabling the Event Monitor
You can enable or disable the event monitor at any time.
Disable the event monitor if you do not want the system to send alert
notifications. If you are running the event monitor on multiple systems,
disabling the event monitor on all but one system prevents the sending of
duplicate messages.
NOTE: It is recommended that you configure the event monitor to start by default
on a management station that runs 24 hours a day.
