9-4-4 Setting Monitoring Periods
By default, thresholds are monitored on a 24-hour basis. However, you can limit monitoring to specific time
periods. Time periods are delimited by starting and ending times.
NOTE: A single threshold can have up to two monitoring periods.
Follow the steps below to set one or two monitoring periods.
1. Open the Groups and Thresholds Configurations dialog box and click on the Thresholds tab to access the
corresponding tab page.
2. Click on the Monitoring Period button. The Monitoring Period dialog box opens.

3. Use the Start and End boxes in the Time Setting area to set a starting and ending time for the monitoring
period.
4. Click on the << button to copy the new time setting into the Daily Monitoring Period box. If the time setting
conflicts with a monitoring period already in the box, an error message appears.
5. To remove a monitoring period, select the monitoring period from the Daily Monitoring Period box and
click on the >> button.
6. Click on the OK button to complete the procedure.
9-4-5 Requesting Recurrent Notifications
OVNPM checks thresholds at regular monitoring intervals. As soon as a threshold condition is detected, the
threshold is put into alert status. You choose whether you want a notification sent only once, at the first interval
that the condition is detected, or at each monitoring interval that the threshold remains in alert status.
To request notification at each monitoring interval; select the Recurrent Notification check box on the Thresholds
tab page in the Groups and Thresholds Configuration dialog box.
To request a single notification, clear the Recurrent Notification check box.
