12.1 Configuring the administrator account
GFI EventsManager automatically creates an EventsManagerAdministrator account. However, you
must still configure some properties such as the notification addresses and account security.
Note
GFI EventsManager requires a valid administrator email address in order to distribute
automatic alerts when particular events are discovered.
To configure the GFI EventsManagerAdministrator account:
1. From Configuration tab > Options, expand Users and Groups > Users.
