Using the Alert Manager › Set Up Alerts

Set Up Alerts

Arcserve Backup provides event-based notification through email, pager, SNMP, broadcast, event log, or through Unicenter Network and Systems Management views. If you have Unicenter installed, you can use its Monitoring Agent to monitor the status of the Arcserve Backup processes and media, and report on the failure of backup jobs.

Esempio: Notifica di avvisi
