Defining alert conditions

Define the conditions that trigger an alert. Determine whether the conditions trigger a change in the health status of a client, or an e-mail notification, or both.

If any alerts trigger e-mail notifications, you must identify the SMTP e-mail server with the Configure the Scan Interval and E-mail for Alerts action.
