Add an Incident Response to a Monitoring Device

Add an incident response to enable the management console to launch a notification in response to a monitoring device incident. Unlike incident responses for applications, servers, and networks, a monitoring device incident response can be filtered by severity (Major or Unavailable) but not by duration.

By default, the management console does not launch a notification in response to a monitoring device incident.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Administration page.
2. Click Policies, Incident Responses in the Show Me menu.
3. Click Add Monitoring Device Response under the Show Me menu.

   Monitor Device Incident Response Properties opens.

4. Type an incident response name and click Apply.
5. Click Edit Actions in the third Show Me menu.
6. Click Add Action under the Show Me menu.

   Monitoring Device Action Types opens.

7. Click an action and click Next.

   Monitor Device Action Properties opens.

8. Complete the fields in Monitor Device Action Properties and click OK.

   For information about setting action properties for a monitoring device, click Help.

   The changes are automatically applied to the monitoring devices with the assigned incident response.
