Clearing mutes

A heading displays on every analyzer page to indicate what object is muted, the time it was muted, and by whom it was muted. If more than one object is muted, only the number of muted objects displays. A mute automatically clears after one hour. You can quickly clear all mutes from the heading. You also can clear just a selected mute.

To clear all mutes
Click Clear All in the heading, and click Yes to confirm.
Click Details in the heading, click Clear All, and click Yes to confirm.
To clear a selected mute
1
Click Details in the heading.
3
Click Clear Mute.

A history of mutes is kept so you can see the object that was muted, who set the mute and at what time, and who cleared the mute and at what time.

Managing alert notifications

Active Directory Health Analyzer generates alerts when problems with Active Directory are detected. You can create notifications to send to specified email recipients. The wizard helps you create multiple types of notifications to address varied audiences and their specific needs. For more information on the types of alerts you can include in the notifications, see the Alerts Appendix.

For example, you might send only site alerts on a selected site to a certain user. You would exclude all forests, all domains, and all domain controllers from the notification. On the Site Selection page, you would choose the selected site.

Assign names and add descriptions to your alert notifications so you can easily manage the list. You can edit and remove alert notifications as your needs change.

Once you create alert notifications, you can see who alerts were sent to and when by displaying the details of an alert. See Viewing alerts and alert history.
