Configuring Monitoring Counters and Email Alerts

On the Notification tab page in the Administration category, you can enable, disable, and configure event notifications, which are used to alert the administrator about system events via email. These  settings apply to all servers in the farm.

Notifications for the following events are available:

• CPU utilization on a server is higher than the configured amount.
• Memory utilization on the server is higher than the configured amount.
• Number of sessions connected to a server is higher than the configured amount.
• Number of disconnected sessions is higher than the configured amount.
• RAS Terminal Server Agent has disconnected from or reconnected to the farm.
• License-related events. One notable event here is your license usage reaching a predefined threshold. Specifically, when your license usage reaches 90% of all available licenses, you will receive an email, so you have time to decide whether you have enough licenses or need to add more. Other events include license activation/deactivation, license expiration, grace period starting/ending, license information changes, problem communicating with the licensing server.
