Defining Global Alert Settings
Global Alert Settings allow you to define notification settings for all alerts simultaneously. These settings are applied to all alerts.
They can be edited by users with the administrative Client Installation and Management permission.
To define Global Alert Settings, click the Alerts navigation link (on the left), and on the Alerts page, click the Alerts tab, and then select Global Alerts Settings in the drop-down list.
The Global Alert Settings page allows you to define how frequently alert notifications will be displayed in the Tray Notifications application and be sent by email.
• The Minimal interval between the same alert events in one session (min) option allows you to define how frequently notifications about the same alert being triggered will be sent (e.g. if this parameter is set to 10, and a user has opened Skype and is using it, the investigator will only receive one notification every 10 minutes instead of receiving multiple notifications).
• Define how frequently notifications will be sent by selecting one of the following options:
- The Send notifications on every alert event option allows you to notify the investigators about every alert event immediately.
- The Send batch notification every (min) option allows you to notify the investigators about all alert events that occurred during the defined time period.
NOTE: The time is calculated from the moment the Application Server starts up if this option is selected. Notifications are then sent at the frequency defined.
