System Alerts
A monitoring process runs on every platform computer in the system. The current state of the platform computers in the system is displayed in the Monitor System page. The system can be configured to send out e-mail notification messages to specified recipients whenever a monitoring process discovers an error, such as a full disk, on one of the monitored computers. Whenever a new error is discovered, a notification is sent. The notification lists all errors that are detected in the system at the time it is sent (even if notifications about them have already been sent).
System alert notifications are configured using a Saved Report interactioned System alert. This saved report appears automatically in the Saved Reports page and cannot be deleted. It is configured using the Scheduling feature.
To configure System Alert notifications
- In the Main Menu, under Reports, select Saved Reports.
- Locate the row of the System alert report, and click Schedule (
). - Fill in the fields as follows:

The Saved Reports tab opens.
