IT Assistant 6.5 - Alert types

Hi,

I am using IT Assistant 6.5 and the OpenManage Client Instrumentation version 7.0.

I am having trouble testing the alerting capabilities of IT Assistant.  I am only able to produce "System down" and "System up" alerts.  I have tried to produce other alerts, for example, by taking the free disk space below the HDD threshold, but did not get any useful results.

Does anyone have any suggestions for testing and producing different types of events/alerts in IT Assistant?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

    I've always been fond of pulling one of the power cords out of a dual or above power suppily system to generate traps.

    I would patch your OMCI to 7.0.1 to start with http://ftp1.us.dell.com/sysman/R60336.EXE

    I am in fact using OMCI 7.0.1 which I believe is the latest version.  Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the suggestion, though I have already tried that.  IT Assistant simply generates a "system down" alert when I do that.  Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I want to test ALL of IT Assistant's alerting capabilities, what types of alerts have you been able to generate?
