DELL CONFIDENTIAL – PRELIMINARY 7/9/12 - FOR PROOF ONLY
Event Handling
Dell Integrated Support intelligently handles event storm conditions,
allowing up to 9 separate alerts from your OpenManage Essentials-managed
environment in a 60-minute time span. If Dell Integrated Support receives
10 or more separate alerts from your OpenManage Essentials-managed
environment within that time it
automatically enters Maintenance Mode.
Maintenance Mode suspends any further processing of alerts, enabling you to
make infrastructure changes without generating unnecessary alerts
. After 30
minutes in Maintenance Mode,
Dell Integrated Support
automatically exits
Maintenance Mode and resumes normal alert processing.
See Troubleshooting Features for more information about Maintenance
Mode.
