Set Run Options

Run Options enable you to specify the runtime settings for an alert.

To set the run options for an Event alert:

  1. On the Edit Event Alert page, click the Run Options tab.

  2. Specify the settings for Stop Duplicate Messages option.

  3. Set the Log Activity History field to Yes to enable activity logging for the alert on the Alerts History page.

  4. Set the Simulate Run option to Yes to do a test run of the alert.

    When this option is set to Yes, notifications aren't triggered in the environment, but you can see the simulated content. This option is useful in a non production environment to test the notifications without sending them. You can review the notification content on the Alerts History page.

  5. Click Save and Close to return to the Alerts page.
