InfraStruXure Central 4.0 User’s Reference 253

Using the Alert View

The InfraStruXure Central Alert View enables you to easily view a summary of all alert events that

were reported by any selected devices on a user-specified day. Any alert events that were active on

the specified date as displayed, as are any alert events that were resolved on the selected date,

regardless of when the alert event began. Alert events begin at the time a specified threshold is

exceeded and end when the alerting sensor has returned to a “normal” state. Therefore, depending on

the nature of the alert, an alert event can continue for more than one day.

Alerts that contain picture data can also be viewed, provided that the alert has been posted to the

InfraStruXure Central server using the device HTTP post support or by using the Send to

InfraStruXure Central or Send HTTP Post alert actions, available using the Alert Action task.

To see a summary of all alert events that were active and/or resolved on a particular date, select the

desired date using the calendar control in the Alerts View. Dates on which no alert events have

occurred are grayed out in the calendar.

Once you have selected a date, a list of the devices that have reported alert events appears below the

calendar control. If a device is not listed, then either no alert events were active on the selected device

on the selected date or you have not configured InfraStruXure Central to collect data from a device

group that includes the device, so alert event data has not been collected from the device and added to

the database. The number of alert events that were active on each device on the selected date appears

in the # column beside the device entry. If the alert includes picture data, graphs, audio clips, or other

attachments, a number representing the number of attachments included in the alert appears in the

attachment column (labeled with the image of a paper clip) beside the device entry. If a device has a

pod or other device connected that has reported an alert event it will be nested underneath the device

to which it is connected.

To see a list of the alert events that occurred on a device on the selected date, select the device. A list

of all alert events associated with the selected device appears in a table in the Alert View pane.
