Thanks.....but in this process all the alarms will be sent via e-mail & I required few particular alarms only to be e-mailed.

Thanks

Hi ksc609,

... all the alarms will be sent...

In reference to the provided procedures, A.7 to A.10 describes the filtering key wherein any matching criteria will be notified not unless all filtering keys will be set then definitely all alarms matching the criteria will be received.

Notwithstanding, the procedure is based on sending alarms by filtering the severity level and not in particular to notifying specific item of the alarm.

Thank you.



Kind regards,
Zero

In relation to A. To create a filter thru mail sending, I have created an escalation via email, hos do I now locate that entry and edit, change / delete entry?

In relation to B. To define the mail server, in my 8770 I do not have option for Directory Application, I have Network, Reporting and Setup. Am I missing something or looking in wrong place?

Thanks in advance and very appreciated.

mailserver in 8770 can be configured in setup section.
directory is only visible when directory license available.
