 |
Notify only if error occurred
in more than one location |
This feature starts the notification process only after a problem is detected by more then one website monitoring agent. This prevents messages related to intermediate Internet network problems from being sent. |
|
 |
|
 |
Set notification time |
|
 |
 |
Number of errors in the row before first
notification |
This option sets up the number of detected
errors-in-a-row that are needed before the notification process
starts. |
|
 |
|
 |
Escalation |
This option notifies different groups
based on how much downtime has occurred. It allows you to
create escalating support levels using Dotcom-Monitor. For
example, you can notify Tier-1 support immediately after
30 seconds of downtime, Tier-2 support after 20 minutes
of downtime, and Tier-3 support after 45 minutes of downtime.

 |
Number of minutes between notifications |
This feature insures fewer redundant
notifications. You can set up how often you prefer to receive
error notification by different messaging formats — phone,
e-mail, etc. — for each device and each error. For example,
you can set-up receipt of an "every instance" e-mail
notification for a specific error, but set-up receipt of a
"once-per-hour" phone message for that same error. |
|
 |
|
 |
Uptime Alert |
Sends an "Uptime Alert" message
after Dotcom-Monitor detects that a problem is corrected. |
 |
 |
SNMP Alert |
The SNMP Alert sends an SNMP trap to an SNMP management console or server. This option allows integrating Dotcom-Monitor alerts directly into IT management system allowing alerts from our monitoring service to be treated and routed as any other alert within enterprise. |
