Dell EMC OpenManage Enterprise 3.9 User's Guide

Monitor and Manage device alerts

By selecting OpenManage Enterprise > Alerts, you can view and manage alerts generated by the devices in the management system environment. The Alerts page has the following tabs displayed:

Alert log: You can view and manage all alerts generated on the target devices.
Alert Policies: You can create alert policies to send alerts generated on target devices to destinations such as email, mobile, syslog server and so on.
Alert Definitions: You can view alerts that are generated for errors or informational purposes.

NOTE

To manage and monitor device alerts on OpenManage Enterprise, you must have necessary role-based user privileges and scope-based operational access to the devices. See Role and scope-based access control in OpenManage Enterprise.
Alert policies and alert logs are governed by the scope based access that you have in OpenManage Enterprise. For example, an administrator can view and manage all the alert policies, however, device managers can only view and manage the default alert policies and the policies that they create and own. Also, the device managers can only view the alerts for the devices that are in their scope.
Currently, only the SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 alerts are received by OpenManage Enterprise from the following PowerEdge servers— MX840c and MX5016s.
OpenManage Enterprise provides a built-in report to view the list of devices monitored by OpenManage Enterprise and the alerts generated for each device. Click OpenManage Enterprise > Monitor > Reports > Alert Counts per Device Report. Click Run. See Run reports
