Setting Up the Alert Monitor › Alert Forwarding

Alert Forwarding

Alerts are displayed on the Alert Monitor; however, you can also forward them to the following platforms:

• EM Console in CA NSM
• UNIX platforms as SNMP traps
• CA NetMaster NM for SNA or Tivoli NetView (TME10) systems, as generic alert NMVTs
• CA Service Desk servers, as CA Service Desk requests or incidents

You can apply filter criteria to forward different types of alerts to different platforms.

Alert forwarding does not require manual intervention; it occurs automatically when the alert is created.
