Before You Start
First, you must have created the set of Time Intervals to use before a Time Interval Configuration can be properly configured (see Add or manage Time Interval).
| Where the configuration is used | What to set |
|---|---|
| Log Views | Name, the Time Intervals users may pick, and optionally Allow Detailed Time Search |
| Non-Events Monitoring | Allow Detailed Time Search must be checked (see below) |
| Recurring User Notifications | Select the configuration in the User Notification's Recurrence setting to make it recur |
Add Time Interval Configuration
Click the 'Add Time Interval Configuration' button to create a new Time Interval Configuration for use with selected Log Views.
The Add button sits in the upper right corner of the Time Interval Configuration Overview.
Manage Time Interval Configuration
Next, you will manage the properties and configuration for the Time Interval Configuration.
The editor for a new Time Interval Configuration; pick the Time Intervals in the panel on the right.
- Name: A Time Interval Configuration must have a name. This name facilitates the selection in a Log View.
- Description: A user-friendly description.
- Allow Detailed Time Search (in Log Views): When checked, the end-user can override the pre-defined Time Interval(s), and use a custom date time as the search criteria
Important
If the Time Interval Configuration is to be used in a Non-Events Monitoring Configuration, you must allow the detailed time search, and perform the actual search NOT using one of the pre-defined time intervals. The API URL you copy must use a custom time format.
Manage Time Intervals
A Time Interval Configuration consists of a set of Time Intervals. Click Edit to change the selection of included Time Intervals.
Check the Time Intervals that users may choose from in the Log View.
From the list of defined Time Intervals, select the ones to be included in the Time Interval Configuration.
The default value, is the Time Interval with the lowest time quanta.
Save
You must click 'Save' or 'Save and close' for changes to persist. The new settings/thresholds are evaluated on the next synchronization.
Save keeps the editor open; Save and close returns to the list.
Then assign the configuration on the Search criteria tab of a Log View, see Time Interval Configuration.
