Adding and Editing Notifications

To edit your notifications please access your “My Account” page.

Under the Notifications heading you will see a list of your notifications.

·      To add a new notification, click the Add another notification option.

·      To edit a notification select the Edit Link next to the notification that you would like to change.

This will open the Notification Data Window.

The settings are:

·      Basic Data

·      Name—enter a name for the notification

·      Comments—enter a description for the notification

·      Status—use the drop-down menu to select the state of the notification. Options include Active and Paused

·      Schedule – allows you to select a schedule defined under My Account. From the drop-down menu you can select from the defined schedules.

·      Dependency—use the drop-down menu to select a sensor to depend on. If this sensor is down no notifications will be sent (e.g. it does not make sense to send a notification if a server somewhere in the Internet cannot be reached simply because your DSL line is down).

·      E-Mail

·      Notification Status—use the drop-down menu to select the state of the email notification (Active or Paused)

·      To Address—Enter the email address where the notification will be sent. To send the email to multiple addresses simply enter all addresses separated by a comma ","

·      Message Subject and Message Body—Enter the subject and the message body of the notification. This message can include basic text as well as Point North Networks Server Monitor Custom Message Tags. These tags allow you to include detailed environmental information.

·      Priority—Use the drop-down to select the priority of this message. Options include: Highest, High, Normal, Low, Lowest.

Once you have entered all of the appropriate information click the OK Button to save the notification.
