4.5.2.5 Audit Log Alerting

PEM provides alert templates that allow you to use the Alerting dialog to create an alert that will trigger when an ERROR or WARNING statement is written to a log file for a specific server or agent. To open the Alerting dialog, highlight the name of the server or agent in the PEM client Object browser tree control, and select Alerting... from the Management menu.

To create an alert that will notify you of ERROR or WARNING messages in the log file for a specific server, create an alert that uses one of the following alert templates:

Number of ERRORS in the logfile on server M in last X hours

Number of WARNINGS in the logfile on server M in last X hours

Number of ERRORS or WARNINGS in the logfile on server M in last X hours

To create an alert that will notify you of ERROR or WARNING messages for a specific agent, create an alert that uses one of the following alert templates:

Number of ERRORS in the logfile on agent M in last X hours

Number of WARNINGS in the logfile on agent M in last X hours

Number of ERRORS or WARNINGS in the logfile on agent M in last X hours

Please note that this functionality is supported only on Advanced Server.
