Notification containers provide a reference point through which the logging server can locate Notification objects. At startup, the logging server scans its list of Notification containers and loads the included Notification object configurations in memory where it can quickly access the information to filter or monitor events.
The logging server only loads Notification objects found in supported Notification containers. Therefore, all Notification containers must be included in this list in order for the logging server to locate their associated Notification objects.
The Notification container in Logging Services is added to this list by default.
IMPORTANT: The logging server scans Notification containers only at startup. Therefore, if you add or remove a Notification container, you must restart the logging server for the change to take effect. For more information on restarting the logging server, refer to the Novell® Audit Administration Guide.
IMPORTANT: Notification containers cannot be created from the Logging Server Options task. Container objects can only be created from the Object view. For information on creating Container objects, see the iManager online help.
To add a Notification container to the logging server's list of supported Notification containers:
On the Logging Server Options page, click the Notifications tab.
Click Container Actions, then select Add Container.
Select a Notification container from the tree.
To move up or down in the tree, click the navigation arrows. You can also search the tree by entering the object name and context in the Search frame.
NOTE: iManager only links valid entries.
The Notification container is added to the list of supported containers.
IMPORTANT: Removing a Notification container from this list does not delete the Notification container or any of its associated objects from the tree. For information on deleting Notification objects from the tree, see the iManager online help.
To remove a Notification container from the logging server's list of supported Notification containers:
On the Logging Server Options page, click the Notifications tab.
Select the check box next to the Notification container you want to remove.
Click Container Actions, then select Remove Container.
The Notification container is removed from the list of supported containers.
