Application Alarms

Use the Applications category on the Roles page Alarms tab to configure alarms for application errors, application hangs, and blue screens. By default, these alarms are on, with Notification and Action set to None.

The Applications category is on the Alarms tab of a role (Configure > System Configuration > Roles). To turn these alarms on and change their time windows and profiles, see Configure Alarms in a Role.

Applications Alarms and Defaults

The Applications category has these alarms. They apply to all applications. The Default column shows the factory values. A role can change them.

Alarm	Description	Default
Application Errors	Monitors the application error events that Windows logs when an application fails.	On.
Application Hangs	Monitors applications that stop responding.	On.
Blue Screen	Monitors blue screens, when Windows stops because of a critical system error.	On.

Add an Alarm for One Application

In addition to the alarms that apply to all applications, you can add an alarm for one application under Application Errors or Application Hangs. Blue Screen has no add icon.

In Configure, go to System Configuration > Roles, select the role, and click the Alarms tab.
Under Applications, on the Application Errors or Application Hangs row, click the add icon (tooltip Add new child setting). The Add New Setting dialog opens.
In Name, enter the file name of the application, for example notepad.exe.
Click Create. The application shows as a new row under Application Errors or Application Hangs.
Select or clear the check box of the new row. The new row has its own on or off setting, so the alarm is on or off for that application only.
Click Save Changes at the top right of the Roles page.
