Description: Number of processes in the run queue
Note: Selecting this check box sets message consolidation for
all e-mail notifications. If a cascading system failure occurs, e-
mail notifications will still be sent; however, they will be
consolidated for the interval specified. To disable e-mail
notifications entirely during a critical period, clear the Enable
E-Mail Notification check box.
Consolidation Interval (minutes) – Displays the amount of time
(in minutes) that messages are consolidated before being sent to
the recipient. The first notification is delivered prior to the
consolidation time period. When the time period expires, a
single (consolidated) notification is delivered, and the
consolidation interval is reset.
Note: To ensure that the most important notifications are
delivered, even with message consolidation turned on, OneSight
will interrupt the consolidation interval if a higher priority alert
is encountered during the consolidation period.
4. To enable e-mail notifications, select the Enable E-mail
Notification check box.
5. Under Servers, enter the machine names of the primary and
backup e-mail servers.
6. Under Identification, enter the return address in the Sender’s
Address field. This e-mail address may be used for reply mail,
as well as to alert the recipient of either the nature of the
message or the source of the message generation (for example,
OneSight_mgr@company.com).
7. Under Message Consolidation, select the Enable Consolidation
check box to activate this feature. Selecting this check box
enables the OneSight system to manage the number of potential
messages a recipient receives as a result of a given alert. Set the
consolidation interval as appropriate.
