Use this display to track the history of any alert that has occurred in your RTView Enterprise system. There is one row in the table for each update to each alert. The table is limited to 20,000 rows. If there are more than 20,000 rows in the selected time range, the newest 20,000 rows are shown.
The color coded navigation tree shows the contents of the CMDB hierarchically ordered. Choose a node to filter alerts shown in the table. The Alert History Table only shows alerts associated with the node you select. A green indicator means the node has no associated alerts. A red indicator means the node has one or more associated alerts.
Service name labels are appended with the Environment. For example, the following illustrates that the TAS-MEMBER Service currently has no alerts in the PRODUCTION Environment.
