Create a New Alert Setting

 

You can configure alert settings to generate alerts based on system health or data in the system audit records. You can configure event types to include in the alert notification, date range, whether to notify all users or only the current user, alerts related to the overall health of the system, when there was a data retention, and so on. You can generate an alert immediately or schedule the alert generation for a later day and time. The generated report is sent to the recipient’s e-mail ID in HTML or PDF format.

    The Create New Alert Setting page appears.
