Verify Application Paths via Basic System Benchmark

It is highly recommended you add the application paths to the Basic System Benchmark for verification. These paths will be verified as soon as the benchmark is executed.

Note: If you want to verify application paths in another benchmark task, make sure you select all the data types on the Retrieve Live Data tab of that benchmark task.

1.In the Domain Management page, click Schedule Task on the Start Page tab, and then click Schedule Discovery/Benchmark Task > Add Task.

2.Edit the Basic System Benchmark, and go to the Additional Operations after Benchmark tab.

3.In the Application Verification area , check the Enable option, and add paths or applications that you want to verify.

4.Click Alert Settings to define system alerts and email alerts for path changes or failures. If the paths fail or change when being compared with Golden Path or last verified result, the system will send alerts to specified users.

1)In the Share Alert with field, enter a username and then select the matched user account from the populated drop-down list.

2)In the Send Email to field, enter at least an email address.
Alert Email Definition Sample:

Email Notification Sample:

Note: Multiple email addresses must be separated with a semicolon.

Note: To use the email notification function, the email server needs to be configured first in the system. See Configuring Email Server Settings for details.  

3)Select the alert level for system alerts and email alerts.

5.Submit the benchmark task.

Verify Application Paths by Scheduling Qapp

You can periodically monitor application paths in a scheduled Qapp task. Once the paths have changes, the system can detect them and send out system alerts, or email alerts, or both.

Note: The steps below assume that you have had the basic knowledge of NetBrain Scheduling Qapp function.

1.In the Domain Management page, click Schedule Task on the Start Page tab, and then click Schedule Qapp > Add Task.

2.On the Target Devices tab, add the paths that you want to monitor.

3.On the Select Qapp tab, select a Qapp to run on the devices of the selected paths.

4.On the Time Settings tab, set the time and frequency to run the task. To 24*7 monitor the application paths, select Continually, and then define the frequency to repeat the task.

5.On the Output tab, define system alerts and email alerts for path changes or failures.

1)In the Share Alert with field, enter a username and then select the matched user account from the populated drop-down list, or directly enter an email address.

Note: To complete an email address, you can enter a comma, semicolon, or press the Enter key, Tab key, or Space key.

2)In the Send Email to field, enter at least an email address.

Note: Multiple email addresses must be separated with a semicolon.

Note: To use the email notification function, the email server needs to be configured first in NetBrain. See Configuring Email Server Settings for details.

6.Click Submit to save the task.
