Action
Select Action from the Alert Monitor menu bar to access commands to
acknowledge and clear alerts. The Action menu items are inactive (gray) unless
an alert is selected.
Acknowledge Alert
Choose Acknowledge Alert from the Action pull-down menu to change all the
alert statuses of the selected alert(s) to the acknowledged state. The alert(s)
color changes, reflecting the acknowledgment. This command is inactive
(gray) unless an unacknowledged alert(s) is selected.
Clear Alert
Choose Clear Alert from the Action pull-down menu to change all the alert
statuses of the selected alert(s) to No Alert. The alert entries are deleted from
the list.
Sort
Select Sort from the Alert Monitor menu bar to access the Sort pull-down menu.
Use the Sort pull-down menu commands to sort the listing by either time or
device name.
To view alerts as they occur (chronologically), display alerts sorted by Timestamp
and view the bottom of the list.
Timestamp
Choose Timestamp from the Sort pull-down menu to have the alerts listed
according to the time they occurred.
Each new alert appears at the bottom of the list. The maximum number of
displayed alerts is 1000, after which the oldest alert disappears as new ones
are added. If the bottom of the list appears, the window will scroll as each
new alert is added to display the most recent alerts. If the scroll bar is used to
display older alerts, the window will not appear to scroll as new alerts are
added, but the scroll box position will change relative to the scroll bar. Scroll
to the bottom of the list to continue the automatic scrolling.
Device Name
Choose Device Name from the Sort pull-down menu to have the alerts listed
according to the device name. The device names are alphanumerically
sorted with the alert Timestamp. Use the scroll bar to view alerts not currently
displayed.
