Installing and Using EMS

Copying Monitoring Requests

There are two ways to use the copy function:

• To create requests for many resources using the same monitoring parameters,

select the monitoring request in the main screen and choose Actions: Copy

Monitoring Request. You need to have conﬁgured at least one similar request for

a similar instance. Choose a different resource instance in the Add a Monitoring

Request screen, and click <OK> in the Monitoring Request Parameters screen.

• To create many different requests for the same resource, select the monitoring

request in the main screen and choose Actions: Copy Monitoring Request. You

need to have conﬁgured at last one request for that resource. Click <OK> in the

Add a Monitoring Request screen, and modify the parameters in the Monitoring

Request Parameters screen. You may want to do this to create requests that send

events using multiple protocols.

Modifying Monitoring Requests

To change the monitoring parameters of a request, select the monitoring request

from the main screen and select Actions: Modify Monitoring Request.

Removing Monitoring Requests

Select one or more monitoring requests from the main screen and choose Actions:

Remove Monitoring Request. To start monitoring the resource again you must

recreate the request, either by copying a similar request for a similar resource or by

re-entering the data.
