alerts generated by Group1. - Identify whether a monitor generated an alert. Which object should you
add to the dashboard?
A. An alert view
B. A state view
C. An alert widget
D. An event view
E. A state widget
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Adding an alert widget to a dashboard
Step 1: In an empty dashboard cell, click on the "Click to add widget" link.
This opens the New Dashboard and Widget Wizard.
Step 2: Now you are presented with a selection of the available widgets.
Select Alert Widgets and then click Next.
Step 3: Once you give your widget a name and a description, you can choose a group or
object for which to display alerts.
The ability to select between "Groups" and "Groups and objects" allows you to change the
scope of objects for which you will receive alerts.
If you only want to target a certain object within a group or class, the
"Groups and objects" option allows you to do so, while the "Groups" option enables you to
view alerts for all objects within the group you choose.
Step 4: Next you can specify the criteria for the alerts you will receive.
You may choose the Severity, Priority, and Resolution State of the alerts.
For example, I will receive alerts for warnings and information of all priority, and in either
the new or closed state.
Step 5: Lastly, select the columns to display for each alert.
You can also decide how the alerts are sorted by default as well as how they are grouped.
One great addition to the alert widget that is not present in the alert view is the addition of
the "Is Monitor Alert" column.
This column allows you to see whether the alert was generated by monitor rather than a
rule.
In my example, I will group alerts by "Is Monitor Alert" and sort by "Last Modified".
And there you have it.
We've configured a dashboard with a powerful alert widget.
It is a great way to quickly view the alerts you care about organized in the way you want.
If you aren't satisfied with your configuration or if your needs change, you can always click
the button which gives you the option to reconfigure, personalize, or remove your widget.
Reconfiguring a widget opens a wizard with your previously chosen widget configuration
and allows you to change all of options to keep up to date with your needs.
Here you can change everything from the groups or objects targeted, to the name of the
widget.
Personalizing a widget allows you to change the display options for that widget.
Here you can change which columns are displayed and how your alerts are grouped and
sorted.
This allows you to view the alerts within a context that is most appropriate to you, but
without having to worry about the primary configuration details.
