Configuration: Notifications
Notification profiles with notifications are created and configured in the Tool Management > Configuration > Notifications tab. Any number of email addresses and notifications can be set in a notification profile. Notifications are related to counter values. If a counter’s warning or blocking limit is exceeded, an email is sent to the specified email addresses. For example, notifications may indicate pending small maintenance or large maintenance.
The Tool Management > Configuration > Notifications tab contains two areas: an area for displaying the notification profiles, and a detailed view where all notifications of the notification profile are displayed.
The details view opens when a notification profile is selected in the table.
