EV Observe - Configure Timeslots

Last modified on 2023/08/07 12:31

Timeslots are used to define specific periods for configuration items (CI):

Notes

  • When a timeslot is defined for a company, it will be visible to all of the company's lower-level sites in the company tree.
  • You can also define notification timeslots in contacts.

Best Practice

  • Define timeslots at the highest level of the company tree so that they can be inherited by the lower levels.
  • Control periods and notification periods should be defined 24/7 so that you can receive notifications 24 hours a day, every day of the week.
