Logging Server Options - Notifications

The Notifications page lists all the Notification containers and associated Notification objects supported by the current logging server. From this page, you can add or remove Notification containers, as well as create, edit, delete and rename Notification objects within the supported containers.

Notification containers provide a reference point through which the logging server can locate Notification objects. Notification containers must be included in this list for the logging server to locate their associated Notification objects. Only the Notification container in Logging Services is added to this list by default; any other Notification containers must be added manually.

IMPORTANT: The logging server scans Notification containers and objects only at startup. Therefore, if you add, remove, or modify a Notification container or object, 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.

 

Notification Container List

Item

Description

Container Name

Lists all Notification containers currently supported by the logging server.

The Notification container in Logging Services is added to this list by default.

Click the plus icon beside any container to expand the list of Notification objects in that container. Click the minus icon to collapse an expanded list.

To select a container or object, select the check box next to it. Select the check box in the list heading (next to Container Name) to select all containers in the list.

 

Status

The Status column indicates whether a Notification object is enabled or disabled .

By default, all Notification objects are enabled. This means that the logging server loads the Notification object's configuration in memory at startup. If a Notification object is disabled, the logging server does not load that object's configuration in memory at startup.

To change a Notification object's status, click the Status icon to toggle between enabled and disabled .

 

Container Actions

Add Container

Adds an existing Notification container to the logging server's list of supported containers. Adding a container means that the logging server scans that container for Notification objects at startup.

IMPORTANT: You cannot create a Notification container 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.

For more information on adding a Notification container, see Adding and Removing Notification Containers.

Removes the selected Notification container from the logging server's list of supported containers. Removing a container means that the logging server no longer scans that container for Notification objects at startup.

Removing a Notification container from the list does not delete the container or any of its associated objects.

IMPORTANT: You cannot delete a Notification container from the Logging Server Options task. Container objects can only be deleted from the Object view. For information on deleting Container objects, see the iManager online help.
