Creating Actions

Applications Manager provides the flexibility in fault management by triggering actions, such as sending e-mail, SMS, trap, and executing a command, to notify you of the alarms generated while monitoring the applications. These corrective actions make fault detection easier and faster enhancing Monitor Group management.

To trigger such corrective actions, you should have defined the action, which can then be associated with an attribute. Applications manager supports the following actions:

• Sending E-mail
• Sending SMS
• Executing Program
• Sending Trap
• Execute MBean Operation
• Log a Ticket
• Perform Java Action
• Cloud Action
• Virtual Machine Action
• Replaceable Tags
• Container Actions
• Windows Services Action
• SQL Job Action
• Webhook/REST API Action

You can view the complete list of actions that are created in Applications Manager under Settings tab → Alarm/Action → Actions or by selecting the View Actions option under the Actions dropdown. Here you can choose to Delete, Add New, Enable, Disable, Edit, or Execute actions based on the respective action type. However, disabled actions will not be executed during the following conditions:

• Associated with an attribute
• Action notifications
• Reports
• Alarm Escalation

Export Actions

This option allows you to export action details in CSV format. All fields and their corresponding values displayed on the Action Creation page will be included in the export. Also, you can download a CSV file that reflects the exact values in the product UI. This option can be enabled or disabled as per requirement. Enable/Disable status will be included as an additional field for all the actions.
