Configure the Monitoring Time-period

Overview​

By default, Motadata is in an active monitoring state 24*7, that is, Motadata carries out data-polling all the time.

But you may not want the monitoring to be done all the time or be notified with alerts outside of your business hours. Motadata takes care of this by allowing you to configure the active monitoring hours in which the data polling is done.

Go to Menu, Select Settings . After that, go to Monitoring . Select Monitoring Hour. The screen to change the monitoring hours of Motadata AIOps is now displayed.

Click on the button. The screen asking for your inputs to configure a new monitoring hour is displayed.

  • Enter the Monitoring Hour Name.
  • Select the time and days as per the monitoring window you want to configure.

Select the Reset button to erase all the current field values, if required.

Select to create the monitoring hour as per your requirement.

A monitoring hour is now created.
