Alerts

You can configure the default alert settings in OpenText™ Core Analytics Database (OTCAD).

Monitoring alerts

OTCAD periodically checks system health and performance. When an important event occurs or system performance fluctuates beyond user or system-defined limits, OTCAD generates a message to alert you about the state of your system. You can view and manage these alerts.

OTCAD sends alerts to you to ensure that you are immediately aware of any changes to your database that might require attention. You receive notifications by email and can also view them from the Bell icon in the upper‑right corner of the application.

Alert categories

Select Alerts in the Settings Overview page.

• The All categories tab displays all alerts in the system by default.
• The Queries tab displays pre-configured alerts to monitor queries.
• The Resource pool tab displays pre-configured alerts to monitor resource pools.
• The Custom tab displays custom alerts in the system.

  Note

  Turn the alert on to activate the corresponding pre-defined alert rule in the database. The system evaluates and sends notifications when alerts are turned on. Turning the alert off deactivates the corresponding alert rule and stops further evaluation and notifications.
