Configuring Alert Rules

Configuring Alert Rules

Managers can customise which alerts are enabled for their organisation and adjust thresholds where applicable.

Accessing Alert Rules

  1. Navigate to Settings > Alert Rules
  2. You must have Manager permissions to access this page

Available Alert Rules

The system provides predefined alert rules for common disk issues:

  • Temperature thresholds
  • S.M.A.R.T. attribute alerts
  • Error count monitoring
  • Capacity warnings
  • Device offline detection

Enabling and Disabling Rules

Each rule can be enabled or disabled for your organisation:

  • Enabled: Alerts will be generated when conditions are met
  • Disabled: No alerts will be generated for this rule

Customising Thresholds

Some rules allow threshold customisation:

  • Adjust the value at which an alert triggers
  • Set different thresholds for warning vs critical severity
  • Tailor alerts to your specific environment needs

Saving Changes

After making changes to alert rules:

  1. Click Save to apply your changes
  2. New settings take effect immediately
  3. Existing alerts may be cleared if their rule is disabled

Effect of Disabling Rules

When you disable an alert rule:

  • New alerts will not be generated for that condition
  • Existing active alerts for that rule may be cleared
  • Historical alert data is retained
