Creating an Alert

You can create alerts to provide automatic notification about operations, such as failed jobs.

Procedure

1. From the Command Center navigation pane, go to Monitoring > Alerts.

   The Triggered alerts page appears.

2. On the Alerts definitions tab, in the upper-right area of the page, click Add alert definition.

   The Add alerts definition page appears.

3. On the General tab, in the Alert name box, type a name for the alert.

   Note

   The name of the alert must be unique and not follow any generic name conventions.

4. From the Alert type list, click the type of alert you want to create.

   For example, select Data protection.

5. For the laptop clients or client groups, if you want to add the alert to the subscription list, move the Subscription-based alert toggle key to the right.

6. To send separate notifications for each client instead of a combined alert listing multiple clients, move the Send individual notification toggle toggle key to the right.

7. Click Next.

8. On the Criteria tab, specify the criteria for which the alert will be triggered.

9. Click Next.

10. On the Associations tab, select the entities to apply the alert to.

    Note

    The tenant admin can select individual or all servers and server groups.

11. Click Next.

12. On the Filters tab, if you want to define alert based on alert tokens, click Add rule group.

13. Click Add Rule and configure a rule.

    For example, JOB ID equals to 1000.

14. Click Next.

15. On the Notification tab, under Template locale, select the language.

16. Click Add notification, and then configure how to notify users when the alert is triggered, and then specify the recipient details.

    For example, you can email the alert to a group of users.

17. Click Submit.
