Administering messages

By administering messages regarding system events, you create a customized system that works for your organization and meets changing requirements. See Message administration screens for more information.

Changing destinations

Default destinations for messages are as follows:

Other destinations, such as pipes, send messages to specific file locations.

Changing priority levels

Increase or decrease the default or current priority level for a system event. By changing priority, you may cause or stop alarms for a particular system event. For instance, assigning an event that normally does not result in an alarm a priority level of Minor results in an alarm for that event that shows up in the Alarms screens.

Establishing thresholds

Establish thresholds for system events, and associate those thresholds with a threshold message that has a particular criticality level, and goes to selected destinations. For instance, a threshold message might be triggered when a certain number of fax prints procedures fail within a specified time period. By establishing thresholds, you alert operations personnel to continued occurrences of events that would not usually result in alarms.
