Schedule an alarm

You can schedule the specific days, and time periods within each day, during which an alarm can be triggered.

If you create a schedule for an alarm, the alarm can be triggered only during the scheduled times. The alarm is never triggered outside its scheduled times, even if the error condition associated with the alarm occurs.

Procedure

Choose System Monitoring > System Monitor > Alarm Settings.
In the Installations tree (left pane), select the Installations tree node from which you want to schedule an alarm (Enterprise, Site Group, Site, or Server).
In the Configure Alarms screen, select the alarms you want to schedule.
- To select a single alarm, click that alarm.
- To select multiple alarms, do one of the following:
  - Hold down the Ctrl key and click multiple alarms.
  - Click Select All to select all alarms on the currently displayed page of alarms. (Alarms not visible on the currently displayed page are not selected.)
Click Edit.
Complete the Scheduling section of the screen:
1. In the Day column, select the days during which the alarm can be triggered.
2. In the Start Time column, click the clock icon and select the time of day at which the alarm is active and can be triggered.
3. In the End Time column, click the clock icon and select the time of day at which the alarm becomes inactive (the alarm cannot be triggered after this time).
  
  In the Start Time and End Time fields, you can also type a time in the hh:mm:AM/PM format, rather than using the clock icon.
Click the Save, Save and Apply to Children, or a Revert option as appropriate.
