Configuring Alerts

Alert Configuration enables you to warn the users about the password expiration, lower hard disk space, and larger temp file size. The alert configurations are user-specific, requiring the user to be logged on to view the alerts. Please note that in this context, 'Network password' refers to the Domain User's password.

Step 1: Name the Configuration

Provide a name and description for the Alert Configuration.

Step 2: Define Configuration

The table given below lists the parameters for which alerts can be configured:

Parameter Description

Password Expiration

The number of days before which the user has to be informed about the password expiration. The default value is 14 days.

Disk Space (MB)

When the disk space goes below the specified value, the user will be warned.

Purge Temp Files

Specify whether to delete the temp files when exceeding the specified limit. You also have an option to specify the file types, size of the files, and whether to prompt the user before deleting the temp files or not.

 

The alerts will be displayed during every logon of the user as long as the alert condition is met. For example, the user will be warned about the lower disk space during every logon until the free disk space exceeds the specified value.

Step 3: Define Target

Using  the Defining Targets procedure, define the targets for deploying the Alert Configuration.

Step 4: Deploy Configuration

Click the Deploy button to deploy the defined Alert Configuration in the targets defined. The alerts will be displayed when the defined conditions are met.

To save the configuration as draft, click Save as Draft.
