Introduction to Events and Notifications

Monitoring is connected with the broadcasting of the events for each managed server or server group. Events are generated when certain conditions related to attributes occur. For information about events and when they occur, see Managing Event Log Entries. Monitoring data is stored as events in the N1 System Manager database instead of log files.

If monitoring is enabled for a managed servers, each event causes a notification to be emitted from the N1 System Manager for that event. Notification rules can be created to notify staff about events that happen with managed servers. See Setting Up Event Notifications for details.
