Description
Use the Alert Report options to specify where to send notification
information, and the Report Criteria options to manage how frequently
messages from the General Event Log are reported.
NOTE: The Local Alert Manager option is not supported on
SnapServers.
Use the Alert Filter options to manage notification severity levels, and to
determine what types of messages should be passed to the Alert
Manager.
NOTE: In the Custom Notification Module, the Realtime Server and
Admin server settings have no effect on SnapServers.
Description
This option removes the file from the Move Folder and restores it
to its original location with its original name and type.
This option displays a dialog box that allows you to change the
directory location and file name. You can rename a file and
isolate it safely in a different location. You may want to use this
option, for example, if you do not have another source for the data
and you need to look at the file. Or you may have a file that you
want to analyze.
NOTE: To restore a file to a different directory, you must
prepend the path to the directory with the string
"/shares." For example, to restore a file to the
SHARE1/sales directory, enter the path as follows:
/shares/SHARE1/sales
This option allows you to restore the selected item back to the
original folder it was in, and cure it. This option is useful if you
update the signature files after items have been put in the Move
folder. If a cure is provided that you did not have available, you
can get the latest signature update and use this option to restore
and cure an infected item.
This option deletes the infected file; no warning or confirmation
message is displayed.
