What are all those check boxes for?

There are many methods of notification for alerts that may arise. The check boxes for the different resources on your system can be checked off for different notification types such as logging to the Windows event log on the local system or sending SNMP traps to an enterprise framework manager. Each notification method can be assigned to a group of or an individual component of the system.

By Default, Email and Central Manager are checked. To change settings for other notification methods you must add the system to a central manager to gain access to the checkboxes for the other notification types.

I keep getting notified about a voltage going out of range and I do not want to know about it. How do I get it to stop?

Each individual sensor has a check box for alerting and threshold range. The threshold range can be changed by the user and the range widened or the sensor checkbox can be unchecked so that alerts for that individual sensor will not be sent.

This can only be changed by adding the system to a Central Manager to gain access to the notification checkboxes.

I changed a value for a hardware sensor to over range and refreshed the screen but the color did not immediately change. Why did the screen coloring not update immediately?
