Monitoring UI

With the Monitoring UI, you can configure all errors that occur on the Bridge instance in regards of

  • downtimes

  • notification threshold

  • notification patterns

All those adjustments can be made, if this error has occurred at least once. Once the error has occurred, it will be added to the database and can be configured. It is not possible to "create" errors within the UI.

Installing the UI

The Monitoring UI is an add-on to the Monitoring Base service. Given the case that the Monitoring Base Service is already deployed and configured (see Monitoring Base Service), the UI can just be deployed without any other prerequisites.
For information on how to deploy services, refer to Deployment of xUML Services.
