Setting Alert Notification

Once set, notification is sent when any enabled alert is triggered. You cannot select specific alerts for notification (for example, notification sent for a Resource State alert, but not a Total CPU Usage alert). You can also elect to be notified if an alert is not resolved before its escalation period has expired.

If a nonadministrative user modifies the email address, the modified address is appended to the notification list, but the original email address is not removed. It must be manually removed by an administrative user. If only a notification check mark is changed, administrative user action is not required; the email address is automatically added to or removed from the notification list. It is the responsibility of the nonadministrative user to notify the administrative user of the change.

If an administrative user modifies a nonadministrative user email address, the notification check marks become deselected on the Notify page of the nonadministrative user, and the email address does not reflect the address change. However, the nonadministrative user does receive email notification using the modified address.

SAP IQ Cockpit validates the format of the email address but not the address itself. The Apply button is unavailable when the format of an address is invalid.

Each managed system must have its own notification email addresses defined; notification addresses are specific to the managed system, not SAP IQ Cockpit.
