Edit the NI GigaStor Monitor Feed

The AlarmNotifier monitor feed receives packet digest files from a NI GigaStor monitoring device. Edit a AlarmNotifier monitor feed to:

• Assign a particular domain. By default, a new monitor feed is assigned to the Default Domain. If you are not using domains to separate duplicate IP traffic, this is not applicable.
• Create a pair of monitor feeds to enable the management console to automatically collect data for assigned servers from both monitor feeds.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Administration page.
2. Click Data Monitoring, Monitoring Devices in the Show Me menu.
3. Browse the Active Feeds column in the ADA Monitoring Device List to find a monitoring device with an active AlarmNotifier monitor feed.
4. Click to edit the monitoring device.

   If you are not sure which monitoring device to edit, use the Assigned To column in the AlarmNotifier Device List to find the monitoring device to which a NI GigaStor is assigned.

5. In the properties dialog box for the monitoring device, scroll down to Monitor Feeds.
6. Click to edit the AlarmNotifier monitor feed.
7. Make your changes to the AlarmNotifier monitor feed settings, and click Update.

   For information about setting AlarmNotifier monitor feed properties, click Help.

8. Click the link to synchronize monitoring devices with the current client network, server subnet, and application definitions on the management console.

   Monitoring devices temporarily stop monitoring application performance during synchronization. To minimize interruptions to monitoring, complete all of your changes before synchronizing monitoring devices.
