NOTE: The e-mail notification of LIN alerts is available to all users; no user rights are imposed.
Although you can clear the attention indicator in the Hardware View and the alert
description in the Port Properties dialog box manually, they may also be cleared by
actions outside of your control; such as on HAFM server reboot.
You can clear the link incident indicator in the Hardware View and the description in
the Link Incident field manually. To manually clear the attention indicator (yellow
triangle), right-click the port with the yellow triangle and select Clear Link Incident
Alert(s) from the menu. In the Clear Link Incident Alert(s) dialog box, select the
appropriate option and click OK.
Be aware that clearing the incident indicator clears it for everyone using the system. If
there are no link incident alerts enabled for a port, no actions occur.

Threshold Alerts

A threshold alert notifies Product Manager users when the transmit (Tx) or receive
(Rx) throughput reaches specific values for switch ports or port types (E_Ports or
F_Ports).
Select the Threshold Alerts option on the Configure menu to display the Configure
Threshold Alerts dialog box. Use this dialog box to configure criteria for generating a
threshold alert. One criteria that you must configure is a throughput value that equals a
specific percentage of the port's total throughput capacity. You also provide a time
interval during which throughput is measured and a time interval during which that
throughput value must remain constant. When throughput reaches the threshold value
and remains constant for the specified time, an alert is generated.
Threshold alerts occur as the following in the Product Manager:
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that displays on the port in the Port Card
View.
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that displays on the port card in the
Hardware View.
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that displays in the Alert column of the
Port List View.
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that displays by the Threshold Alerts field
in the Port Properties dialog box.
Detailed threshold alert data recorded in the Threshold Alert Log.
