Setting Up a Notification Schedule

Once you have defined your email notification addresses, you will need to define a notification schedule. For example, if your email addresses are user1@myco.com, user2@myco.com, user3@myco.com, you can choose to use one or more of these email addresses for each time period in your notification schedule. Only email addresses that have been specified with your user preferences (Enterprise Manager Password and Email page) can be used in the notification schedule.

Note:

When you enter email addresses for the first time, a 24x7 weekly notification schedule is set automatically. You can then review and modify the schedule to suit your monitoring needs.

A notification schedule is a repeating schedule used to specify your on-call schedule—the days and time periods and email addresses that should be used by Enterprise Manager to send notifications to you. Each administrator has exactly one notification schedule. When a notification needs to be sent to an administrator, Enterprise Manager consults that administrator's notification schedule to determine the email address to be used. Depending on whether you are Super Administrator or a regular Enterprise Manager administrator, the process of defining a notification schedule differs slightly.

If you are a regular Enterprise Manager administrator and are defining your own notification schedule:

  1. From Setup menu, select Notifications, then select My Notification Schedule.
  2. Follow the directions on the Notification Schedule page to specify when you want to receive emails.
