Actions in the Alert Monitoring Tree(CCMS)

The alert monitoring tree provides you with an overview of the system status of monitored systems. There are various options for displaying and checking the alerts that have occurred. The most important commands that you can use in the alert monitoring tree are described here.

Activities

  • Choose Compress Tree (This graphic is explained in the accompanying text) or the folder icon (This graphic is explained in the accompanying text) directly in front of the relevant branch in the Alert Monitor to compress the individual branches of the alert monitoring tree.
  • Select an element in the monitoring tree and choose
  • F1 to display a description of the element.
