The Central Management Repository is able to check whether the collected data is below or above a certain threshold. Based on this, notification e-mails can be send to inform about the threshold violation.
| Warning |
|---|
The alerting works only if the time series database is used for the persisting long term data. See Setup Monitoring and Long-term Data Persistence Configuration pages first. |
Enable the Alerting
The alerting feature can be turned on and off in the configuration dialog of the corresponding CMR. To turn it on/off navigate to Alerting and turn on/off the option "Alerting enabled". If this option is "On", the specified alert will be checked (to specified alerts and thresholds, see Setup Alerts and Thresholds for more details). In order to send notification e-mails which inform about a threshold violation, the CMR's Mail settings have to be configured.
