Notify Rule menu - ASAP determines when to send reports to you based on the
Notify Rule setting.
This menu allows you to control what conditions will cause a profile to send a
notification. Notifications can occur:
At periodic time intervals such as Every 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 ... Hours;
At user-defined times such as 6:17, 7:30, 9:45, 11:00, 12:55, 15:05, …
When object-state changes occur - OnStateChange
When new sampling analysis activity occurs - OnEachSample
Score Check Box - if selected, a color-coded score-board matrix of object types
versus object-state counts is generated whenever a notification occurs for this profile.
This report is useful for providing reports about the overall health of system,
subsystem, and application objects.
Alerts Drop-Down - if the value selected is zero, this drop-down disables the display
of an Alerts report for this profile. If the value selected is not zero, the value indicates
the number of color-coded recent object-state changes that should be displayed for the
alerts portion of this report. Alerts are reported with most recent state changes listed
first, followed by less recent changes.
Detail Drop-Down - if the value selected is zero, this menu disables the display of a
Detail report for this profile. If the value selected is not zero, the value defines the
number of most critical objects to be displayed in the object-state report. The Detail
report shows offending objects sorted from the highest, most-critical state to the
lowest, least-critical state.
Entity-Attribute Grid reports Check Box – if this option is checked then email,
phone, website notifications will include highly detailed HTML color-encoded entity-
attribute grid-graph reports for each enabled entity. Objects that appear in the Entity-
attribute grid-graph reports must meet Minimum State Change Monitored drop-down
settings on the OSC tab of the ASAP Properties window. Entity-attribute grid-graph
reports have a number of additional reporting options including: Graphs, Icons, Border,
Color-Gray, Color-Max, Color-Each, Shade, SIM, Style, and Refresh properties. The
following is an explanation of each of these options:
Graphs check box - enables color-coded, embedded, scaled, horizontal graphs.
Icons check box - enables display of state icons in entity-attribute grid reports.
Border check box - enables display of borders around entity-attribute grid cells.
Color options - control how graphs are color-coded as explained below.
Color Graph - indicates all graphs should be colored gray.
