Disable monitoring for one or more devices

Disable monitoring for one or more devices

When you no longer want to monitor a device, you can disable the capability, after which the device no longer counts against your license limit.

You can disable monitoring for a device in three locations. Two of the locations you use for individual devices and one location you use for a group of devices.

•
Disable monitoring from a device's Device Detail page:
1.
On the left navigation bar, click Inventory, then click Devices.
2.
Click the name of a device.
3.
Click the Activities tab to expand the Monitoring section.
4.
Click Disable Monitoring.
5.
Confirm the action on the confirmation dialog.
•
Disable monitoring from a device's Monitoring Detail page:
1.
On the left navigation bar, click Monitoring, then click Devices.
2.
Click the name of a device.
3.
On the Monitoring Detail page, click Disable.
4.
Confirm the action on the confirmation dialog.
•
Disable monitoring for multiple devices from the Devices list.
1.
On the left navigation bar, click Monitoring, then click Devices.
2.
Select the check boxes preceding all the devices on which you want to disable monitoring.
3.
Select Choose Action > Disable Monitoring.
4.
Confirm the action on the confirmation dialog.

Disabling monitoring does not delete the device's alerts. On the Monitoring Alerts list page, for an alert relating to a disabled device, the Device column entry contains Device deleted or no longer monitored. If you re-enable monitoring for this device, however, the appliance treats the device as a newly monitored device. In this case, the earlier alerts from the device still appear as Device deleted or no longer monitored.

For information on deleting alerts, see Delete alerts.

When you want to monitor a device, you can start monitoring it. Any devices that are enabled for monitoring count against your license limit.

Enabling monitoring for a device allows the device to generate alerts when certain thresholds are met. If you re-enable monitoring for this device, the appliance treats the device as a newly monitored device. In this case, the previous device alerts appear as Device deleted or no longer monitored. For information on deleting alerts, see Delete alerts.

When server monitoring produces an alert, you have various responses available to you.

You can use the alert as a basis for a Service Desk ticket or an automated email notification. After dealing with the alert according to your procedures, you can dismiss it, or delete it entirely.

If you have added the monitoring widgets to your Dashboard, you can see at a glance the current top alerts, with links to the Monitoring Alerts list page and the Monitored Devices list page.

The following icons indicate alert level:

•
: Stopped
•
: Error
•
: Warning
•
: Information

Add notification schedules from the Monitoring Alerts list page

You can add monitoring alert notification schedules for devices, alert levels, messages, and other alert information. These schedules enable the appliance to notify administrators through email or push notification to a KACE GO mobile device when specified criteria are met.

You have configured your email notification settings.

Go to the Monitoring Alerts list page in one of the following ways:
◦
If you have the Monitoring Alerts widget installed on your open Dashboard, click Monitoring Alerts.
◦
In the left navigation bar, select Monitoring > Alerts.

5.
Optional: Select the check box for Send to KACE GO if you want the alert to be pushed to a mobile device that has the KACE GO app.
Mobile device access must be enabled for this option to be available. See Configuring Mobile Device Access.
