Configuring Alert Settings

Administrators can configure alert settings for server-side failures for the selected application. You can also configure alerts for SAP Business Technology Platform mobile services alerts, and release upgrade notices.

The SAP Alert Notification service must be available for the Cloud Foundry environment in order to receive alerts. If the Alert Notification service is not available, this message appears on the Alerts tab: "This feature requires Alert Notification service. Alert Notification service is not yet available in this landscape or region." Once the Alert Notification service is available, an administrator enables alerts for the application, and establishes the message threshold, and schedule.

To receive notifications, configure Subscriptions and Alerts through the Alert Notification service (subscriptions and alerts cannot be managed through SAP mobile service cockpit). See SAP Alert Notification for information.

To configure alerts:

  1. In SAP mobile service cockpit, select Mobile Applications > Native/MDK.

  2. Select an application, then select the Alert tab.

  3. Select edit .

  4. In Edit Settings, select Enable Alert.

    • Message Threshold – if the generated error/log number is greater than the threshold number send an alert notification.
    • Schedule – frequency at which alerts are sent.
    • Expires – the date until which alerts are sent. This value is not editable, and changes automatically when the administrator makes any changes to this page. Alerts are sent only for 60 days after the change.
  5. Under Alert, select edit to set the event log level to Error or Warning for each service.

    Note

    • All features assigned to the selected app are listed here.
    • Mobile Sample OData ESPM feature is not supported.
  6. In Alert Notification Service, you are referred to the Alert Notification service available in the SAP Business Technology Platform Cloud Foundry environment. You can configure alerts for one or more services. See "Subscribe to Mobile Service Alerts" for information.
