Configuring Notification Templates

Prerequisites

You have the following operation permissions: Set Notification Rules.

Procedure

  1. Choose Device Management > Alarms Management > Alarm Settings from the main menu.
  2. In the navigation pane, choose Notification Templates.
  3. On the Notification Templates page, click Create.
  4. In the Basic Information area, enter the template name and description.
  5. In the Notification Method and Content area, select Email or SMS message as the notification method, and set the important information of the notification, such as, severity, name, and occurrence time.

    • If you select New alarms + new cleared alarms for Subtitle, a notification email can contain multiple alarms or events. The maximum size of an email is 2 MB. If the size of an email exceeds the maximum size, the email is split into multiple emails. When you create a notification rule, an email can contain a maximum of 200 alarms or events. If Delay (min) is set in the rule, the number of alarms in an email is not limited to 200.
    • If you deselect New alarms + new cleared alarms for Subtitle, only one alarm or event is sent in a notification email.

    The contents in black in the template are fixed fields displayed in emails or SMS messages. Users can modify them as required. The contents in blue show alarm information and vary depending on alarms. You can add the contents in blue by selecting the labels below rather than manually editing them.

    The meaning of Occurred varies in the following scenarios:

    • Generally, when an alarm is reported, this parameter refers to the report time, corresponding to the First Occurred field on the Current Alarms page.
    • When a merged alarm is reported, this parameter refers to the report time of the merged alarm, corresponding to the Last Occurred field on the Current Alarms page.
    • When an alarm clear notification is sent, this parameter refers to the time when the alarm is generated, corresponding to the Last Occurred field on the Alarm Logs page.

  6. Click OK.
