7.1.2. Advisory Snooze
Configuration
Advisory Snooze Configuration allows you to set
an alarm wait time (a Snooze alarm) to reduce the to-
tal amount of recurring advisories in the database.
When the Snooze flag is ON in the database, adviso-
ries will be snoozed. You can set up a default snooz-
ing period at the customer level, site level, or specific
advisory level.
Once sent, a Snoozed advisory will not be sent to
the monitoring server again until the Snooze has ex-
pired and the advisory is still active. The advisory will
then be re-sent to the monitoring server as a new ad-
visory.
Snooze configuration will set the snooze time for
a historical advisory.
Choose to use default values (6 hours) or set your
own configuration from the drop-down list under the
"OR" section. Choose advisories never to be snoozed,
or for a duration of time (minutes or hours). When you
choose a duration of snooze time, enter the number of
hours or minutes in the field depending on which one
you select. The default value for hours and minutes is
6.
