Alerts

The Alerts section includes the following reports:

Alerts

The Alerts report lists all the snapshots that alerts generate.

Alert Configuration

The Alert Configuration page lets you specify the thresholds for when to generate an alert. Alerts provide warnings of potential problems, including a slow server or an unresponsive server. The slow-server alert is triggered when the server's average response time exceeds a specified limit. The unresponsive-server alert is triggered when more than a specified number of threads are busy for more than a specified number of seconds. The unresponsive-server alert creates a snapshot file, which lets you determine where request threads are unresponsive. Both types of alert let you invoke a custom CFC when the alert is triggered, which lets you provide your own automated response to an alert condition. You can specify whether to send an e-mail notification when an alert is triggered, and to whom. You can also specify the username and password to log in to the server that is specified on the Mail page of the ColdFusion Administrator.
