Inherited From |
The Site Group, Site, or Server node from which the alarm settings (not the actual alarms) are inherited. You can configure settings for individual alarms at the Enterprise, Site Group, Site, or Server node of the Installations tree. The lower nodes of the Installations tree can then inherit the alarm configuration. (If you click the Save and Apply to Children button after changing the configuration of an alarm, the lower nodes of the Installations tree inherit the configuration settings.) You can select a lower node of the Installations tree and change (or edit) the configuration for the alarm at the lower node. This capability allows you to configure the same alarm to behave differently for different Site Groups, Sites, or Servers. When you select a node in the Installations tree, the Inherited From column shows the node from which the selected node is inheriting the alarm configuration. If the Inherited From field displays the same node that is selected in the Installations tree, the individual alarm settings are configured at the selected node. The alarm settings are not inherited from a higher node in the Installations tree. |
Roles Affected |
The server roles affected by the condition that this alarm reports. For example, an archive configuration error would affect the functioning of the Centralized Archiving role on a server. |
Profiles Assigned |
Shows the notification profiles assigned to the alarm. The same alarm can have different Notification Profiles assigned to it at different nodes of the Installations tree. The same Notification Profile can also be configured to notify different employees (by means of email) and SNMP nodes at different nodes of the Installations tree. |
