The XenData
Alert Module is designed for use with XenData Archive Series
Software, and is compatible with the Video and Advanced Editions,
version 3.32 and higher. By filtering and categorizing events
recorded in the XenData Event Log, it can tailor email and
on-screen alerts to the needs of the Archive System Administrators.
This Module is very useful when accessing offline files, as
it automatically generates emails identifying requested files
and the required tape cartridges needed for access.
The module consists of two key components:
Event Monitor
The event monitor runs on the same server
as the Archive Series Software, and is complete with email
notification. This monitoring service is pre-configured to
detect five different categories of events as they occur in
the XenData Event Log. Each category can be mapped to unique
groups of email recipients.
- XenData Audit – Describes the
successful completion of media management operations
- XenData
Media Management – Events that may require routine actions
of the administrator
- XenData Media Error – Provides error
messages associated with tape cartridge problems
- XenData
Hardware Error – Provides error messages associated with
the tape drive or library
- XenData System Error- Provides
error messages associated with system problems
On-Screen Messaging
The on-screen Messaging program may be run on the same server
as the Event Monitor or on Windows clients. It can be configured
to display via
message boxes and system tray notification. This program connects
to the event monitoring service on the archive service, and
may be run simultaneously on multiple clients. The program
requires Windows XP, 2000 or Windows Server 2003 Operating
System.
