Configuring Event Log Monitors
Locations Tab – Specifies the Data Collector Location from which
the monitor checks performance.
SmartLinks Tab – Contains the options for specifying a link to
associate with a particular monitor or metric.
Attributes Tab – Contains the options for specifying which attributes
are applied to this monitor for Status page sorting.
Monitor Groups Tab – Contains the options that you can use to
specify which monitor groups the monitor is used with. This tab is
available when you open the Add Monitor window by selecting
Monitors from the Configure menu. It is not available when you
open the Add Monitor window from the Monitor Group Editor.
Access Control Tab – Contains the options for specifying which user
groups have read, write, and delete permissions for this monitor.
Down Time Tab – Contains the options for applying downtime to
this monitor.
Each monitor that you create must have a unique name. In the
Monitor Name box, OneSight creates a unique name for the current
monitor by combining the name of the monitor type with the name
of the host to which the monitor applies. To change the default
assigned name, type a unique monitor name that helps you to
identify what this monitor does.
To create an Event Log monitor:
1. On the Monitors Page, click Add to open the Add Monitor
dialog box.
