Assigning an action to an active monitor

As you configure active monitors for a device, you have the opportunity to assign actions; however, it is not required that you assign them at that time. If you decide to assign an action to the monitor at a later time, you can do so through the device Properties.

To assign an action to an active monitor:

1. In the Details or Map View, right-click a device, then select Properties. The Device Properties dialog appears.
2. Click Active Monitors. The Device Properties - Active Monitors dialog appears.
3. Select the monitor to which you would like to assign an action, then click Edit. The Set Polling Properties dialog appears.
4. Make any adjustments to polling selections, then click Next. The Setup Actions for Monitor State Change dialog appears. The Apply individual actions option is selected by default.
5. Click Add. The Action Builder appears; you can choose to add an action from the Action Library, or create a new action.
6. Follow the directions in the Action Builder wizard.
7. At the end of the wizard, click Finish to add the action to the monitor.
8. On the Device Properties dialog, click OK to save changes.
