About customizing Alert Manager settings

You can customize a few Alert Manager settings using the am.conf configuration file.

The am.conf configuration file is located at the following default location:

Windows

<INSTALL_DIR>\OpsCenter\server\config\am.conf

The Alert Manager configuration settings are described as follows:

Note:

By default all Alert Manager configuration parameters are set to "true".

am.autoClear

Set this parameter to "true", if you want the Alert Manager to automatically clear the alerts that are generated in OpsCenter.

am.notifyOnAutoClear

Make sure that the am.autoClear parameter is set to "true", to apply the change in the am.notifyOnAutoClear parameter setting on the Alert Manager functionality.

Set this parameter to "true", if you want to send notification after an alert was automatically cleared.

am.notifyOnManualClear

Set this parameter to "true", if you want to send notifications after manually clearing alerts.

Note:

If you set an Alert Manager configuration parameter to a value other than "true" or "false", OpsCenter assumes it as "false".
