Alert Events Notification Settings in IVM
When an Alert message is written to the Ingres errlog.log file, IVM indicates the alert through a special icon change in the tray toolbar and in the IVM window tree. IVM also lets you set additional preferences for alert notification using the Preferences dialog. These additional preferences include:
Sound
When selected, you are alerted of an event by a sound (beep).
Message Box
When selected, you are alerted of an event by a message box if there are unread “Alert” messages.
OS Event (for new Events only)
When selected, the full text of all “Alert” messages resulting from new events are logged in the Operating System [Application] Event log in addition to the Ingres errlog.log file. If this option is selected, you can also set preferences for generating specific Operating System events.
To access the Preferences dialog, click the Preferences toolbar button, or choose File, Preferences. For instructions on setting these additional preferences, see the Preferences dialog topic in the Visual Manager online help.
