k. To determine where the alert notifications will be sent to when this particular Alarm
or Warning Event occurs, click the Add icon to create a new Action, then select the
desired options from the drop-down menu:
· Target is the e-mail address or SNMP manager to which notifications should be
sent when the Event is tripped. Other options, such as "buzzer", may be available
depending on your Geist PDU.
· Delay determines how long this Event must remain tripped before this Action's
first notification is sent. (Note that this is different from the Trip Delay, above; Trip
Delay determines how long the threshold value has to be exceeded before the
Event itself is tripped.) Delay can be up to 14400 seconds (4 hours). A Delay of 0
will send the notification immediately.
· Repeat determines whether multiple notifications will be sent for this Event Action.
Repeat notifications are sent at the specified intervals until the Event is
acknowledged, or until the Event is cleared and reset. The Repeat interval can be
up to 14400 seconds (4 hours). A Repeat of 0 disables this feature, and only one
notification will be sent.
Then, click Save to save this notification Action.
If required, multiple Actions can be set for an Alarm or Warning; to add multiple
Actions click the Add icon again and set each one as desired. Each alert can have
up to 32 Actions associated with it.
To change an existing notification Action, click the Modify icon next to the Action you
wish to change, then modify its settings as above.
