Use the Alert Display Filter Settings tab
of the System Preferences screen to customize
the default settings for the filter options on your Alert
Summary window.
About this task
These settings control the following default values in the
Visualizer:
- The maximum number of alerts to display in the Alert
List
- The minimum relationship score for role alerts to display
- The number of days of alert summaries to display (from the current
date backwards)
The values you set here determine the default filter values that
your Visualizer instance uses each time you open a new
Alert
Summary window.
- In the Visualizer, select .
- Under the Alert Display Filter Settings section,
in Maximum alerts to display in alert list,
enter a number that represents the maximum number of alerts to display
in the Alert List table. The default
setting is 100, which means that when you select an alert summary,
the first 100 associated alerts display in the Alert List.
You might want to change the default setting to display fewer alerts.
- In Minimum relationship score, enter
the lowest relationship score to use as a threshold for displaying
role alerts. The higher the relationship score, the fewer
the number of role alerts and role alert summaries that display.
- In Number of days of alerts to display (including
today), enter a number 1-99 that indicates the number
of days of alerts to see. The number starts with the current
date and counts backwards, so if you enter 1, you only see alerts
generated on the current day. If you enter 10, you only see alerts
for a total of 10 days – the current day and 9 days prior. The default
value is 99.
- Optional: If your system administrator has
enabled alert threshold override in the Configuration Console, the Include
filtered role alerts check box displays.
- Select the Include filtered role alerts check
box to display all role alerts and role alert summaries on the Alert
Summary window with relationship scores outside the minimum
alert threshold defined in the role alert rule.
- Clear the Include filtered role alerts check
box to display only those role alerts and role alert summaries on
the Alert Summary window with relationship
scores that meet the minimum alert threshold.
- Click Submit. A confirmation
message informs you that you must restart the Visualizer before your
changes take effect.
- In the confirmation message, click OK.
- Close your Visualizer session, restart the Visualizer,
and log in again.
