Managing Events

An event is a setting that notifies the user when a performance metric of the monitored target meets a specific condition. By configuring events, users can capture essential monitoring information without missing it. For example, if you set an event to trigger whenever a performance value related to overload exceeds a certain threshold, a notification is sent to the user each time there is a risk of overload during resource operation. Users can respond proactively before problems occur based on this.

In event management, you can create such events and configure them to notify designated users whenever a specific value occurs during monitoring.

Check Event Status

In the Event Status, you can view information about all generated events, related performance metrics, and the history of event notifications delivered to users. To view the Event Status list, follow these steps.
