Alerts
An alert is helpful during monitoring thresholds when you want a notification about when the power of a device or a group
exceeds the limits set on them. Also, when there are changes to a group you are monitoring.
An alert is generated at the following circumstances and you can view them in OpenManage Enterprise > Alerts > Alert Log
or OpenManage Enterprise > Monitor > Audit Logs :
● When the values cross the defined alert thresholds
● When the values for a device or group come back to normal state.
● When an active policy's policy cap is violated.
● When there are changes to a group that has an active policy that is applied on it.
● When a policy is applied on a static group and if new devices are added to the group.
For more information about alerts, see OpenManage Enterprise User's Guide.
