Zerto Alerts

Zerto issues an alert when a problem is identified or an event occurs.

Monitoring Alerts

All alerts issued by Zerto are displayed in the Zerto User Interface. An alert status indicator is displayed in the top left of the display and specific details of all issued alerts are displayed in the Alerts tab under the top Monitoring tab.

The information displayed in the Alerts tab includes the VPG name, entity name that triggered the alert, the date and time the alert was issued and a description of the alert.

Alert Status

The alert status indicator in the bottom left shows the number of alerts and the color for the most severe alert that is currently valid. After the alert has been resolved, the alert is removed from the Alerts tab and the alert status indicator changes, if appropriate, to show the new alert status.

Warnings are indicated by the orange icon and alerts by the red icon.

Working With the Alert Tab
Acknowledge alerts by selecting the relevant alerts and clicking the Acknowledge button.
Acknowledging an alert does not resolve the problem.
Unacknowledged alerts are displayed in the title bar.
If the description of the alert is truncated, hover over the alert to display a tooltip with the complete description.
Alerts from previous versions are displayed with an Unknown link.
Click Export to save the alerts as a Microsoft Excel worksheet.
