Personal Info
Start by entering personal information; setting an email address, first name, last name and password for the new user.
By selecting the ‘environment admin’ box, you grant the new user the ability to install agents and modify other users. Your company name is selected automatically and cannot be modified.
Email notifications
After all personal information is supplied and saved, you can continue by editing email notifications.
There are several options to match email notifications with the user's personal needs.
- Events: Set the type of event on which you would like to receive an email notification (‘None’, ‘Unspecified’, ‘Verbose’, ‘Info’, ‘Warning’, ‘Error’ or ‘Critical’ )
- Anomalies: Select how critical the status of the detected anomaly must be before sending out an anomaly alert (‘None’, ’Low’, ‘Medium’, ‘High’, ‘Critical’)
- Node status change: When selecting this, an alert will be send when a node changes status (whenever an instance changes from started to stopped and vice versa),
- Agent disconnect: When selecting this, an email notification will be send out when the agent is disconnected.
- Agent reconnect: When selecting this, an email notification will be send when the agent is reconnected again.
