Working with the My Alerts display |
Select > My AlertsBYRNB 2/16/10 to view lines from the current Alert log on the server node produced by your own requestor session. (You can access the same display from the My Alerts link of the Performance tool summary display.) Proj-505 CODE-271
During your requestor session, a pop-up message appears briefly when an alert is triggered.
Each alert in the STANDARD
Thread increments a counter
() located on the left side of the portal title bar. The
counter does not appear until the first alert. Alerts in the
DEVELOPER
Thread or other Threads are not included in this
count, as they are unlikely to occur for users of the application you are
building, and so are not relevant to your application's runtime
performance.
Click the counter to open the list of alerts described below. When you log off and back on again, the counter resets to "0" and no counter displays.
To turn off the pop-up feature, select Preferences > View byrnb 2/16/10 from the Designer Studio Profile menu and clear the Show Alerts Popup checkbox in the My Alerts group.
This display is limited to the current Alert log; alerts in older logs are not visible. Depending on your log file systems settings, a new log may start each time a node is started, at specific time each day, or on another basis.
