Stopping and Restarting Alert Generation 

Use

You can prevent alerts from being generated for specific monitoring tree elements (MTEs).

For example, assume that you are working on a particular component that has failed. You can prevent additional alerts from being generated for this component while you are working on it.

Prerequisites

To change the alert monitor, you must first activate the maintenance functions.

Procedure

  1. Choose CCMS ® Control/Monitoring ® Alert monitor. Alternatively, call Transaction RZ20.
  2. Expand the monitor set that contains the monitor you require and choose Monitor (set) ® Load monitor.
  3. To change the alert monitor, choose Activate maintenance functions.
  4. Select one or more MTEs in the alert monitor and choose Edit ® Alerts ® Configure generation.
  5. The system displays the Alert Generation dialog box. Choose Hide and confirm your entry. The alert monitor marks the affected MTEs as inactivated.

Result

No alerts will be generated in the affected MTEs until you reactivate alert generation. To do this, repeat the procedure above and choose Permit in the Alert Generation dialog box.
