Setting Notification Targets
You must set up specific targets for the PATROL KM for Event Management notifications to ensure that the proper people are notified when alerts occur. The following procedure describes how to set the notification target for a parameter alert.
To Set Notification Targets
- From the PATROL console, access the host KM menu commands, as described in Accessing KM Commands and InfoBoxes.
- Choose the KM menu command Event Management > Alert Settings > Notification Targets > Email > Local Targets ANY STATUS > Set For Parameters. The Set Event Management KM Variables/Rules dialog box opens as shown in the following figure.
Selecting Applications - Select the application class of the parameter and click Accept. The Set Event Management KM Variables/Rules dialog box opens as shown in the following figure.
Selecting Application Instances - Select the application instance of the parameter, and click Accept. The Set Event Management KM Variables/Rules dialog box opens as shown in the following figure.
Selecting Parameters - Select the parameter and click Accept. The Set Event Management KM Variables/Rules dialog box opens as shown in the following figure.
Set Event Management Alert Variables/Rules Dialog Box - Enter the e-mail address of the target for this alert and click Accept.
You can set other notification targets using the same procedure, but you choose a different menu command in Step 2. For example, you may choose Paging instead of Email.
If a Problem Occurs
If you specify multiple targets but only the first target receives the e-mail message, see Cannot Send E-mail Notifications to Multiple Targets.
