A default alert profile exists at each NetBotz Appliance. This default profile cannot be deleted, but it can be edited and renamed. In addition to the default profile, you can create your own custom alert profiles at each NetBotz Appliance.
Note
Alert actions, alert profiles, and alert thresholds set on a NetBotz Appliance are actually stored on, and triggered from, the NetBotz Appliance. This is completely separate from the alarm actions, thresholds, and notification policies that are created on the Data Center Expert server in the Alarm Configuration perspective, and stored on the Data Center Expert server.
The following table identifies which alert profiles can be used for which alarms.
Alarm type | Profile |
Alert threshold violations from NetBotz Appliances | Any profile defined on the NetBotz Appliance. Each appliance has its own set of profiles. |
Note An alert profile must include at least one alert action before it can be used to generate alert notifications. |
