Alert Address Management

Alert email address can be produced by Directory Integrator when certain events happen. These events include:

• when a data source is unavailable
• when there are x number of user changes on a data source

Whenever these events occur, emails are sent to all selected alert addresses.

NOTE: The Alert tab is only available if "Communicate using this mail profile" on the Export settings tab is selected.

NOTE: Alerts are only sent when Directory Integrator is running as an automated process.

Alert Address List

This lists all the alert addresses that have been entered. Each has an identifiable name and their corresponding email address.

The status of each alert address can be set here. To prevent an address from receiving alerts, remove the tick from the status column.

Add

Clicking Add displays the form for entering an alert address. Enter the name along with the email address and click OK.

Edit

To edit the email address of an existing alert address, select it in the list and click Edit. This will display the above form so the address can be edited.

NOTE: Only the email address can be edited - the name cannot be.

Delete

To remove an alert address, select it in the list and click Delete.

Alert addresses who have a status of Not Selected will also be removed by clicking "Remove Inactive Entries" on the Database settings tab.

Alerts

These are the events that will trigger the sending of alert emails. Select the desired alerts from the list.

When a data source is unavailable

Sends an alert if a data source cannot be connected to by Directory Integrator.

When there are more than x changes

When data sources are being automatically managed, an alert is sent if there are more than x changes in one check. See Managing Data Sources Automatically for more details.
