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 is higher than . The CPU utilization on a server is higher than the amount specified in the Parameters column.
• Memory utilization is higher than . The memory utilization on the server is higher than the amount specified in the Parameters column.
• Number of sessions is higher than . The number of sessions connected to a server is higher than the amount specified in the Parameters column.
• Number of disconnected sessions is higher than . The number of disconnected sessions is higher than the amount specified in the Parameters column.
• RAS Agent has disconnected from or reconnected . One of the RAS Agents (RD Session Host Agent, Publishing Agent, VDI Agent, RAS Secure Client Gateway) has disconnected or reconnected to the farm.
• Licenses . License-related events. One notable event here is the license usage reaching a predefined threshold. Specifically, when the 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.
