Alerts draw attention to potential and actual problems and other events of interest to an administrator. If an alert remains unattended or is not captured soon after problems occur, users may be unable to access the target storage server until administrators fix the issue. This may lead to poor user experience and may also lead to revenue loss. To improve user experience and to clear alerts at a faster pace, administrators need to constantly keep a vigil on all the alerts that are generated on the target storage server. The OraExaAlertTest helps administrators in this regard!

This test reports the count of alerts generated by the target Oracle Exadata Storage Server. Using this test, administrators can figure out how many critical, informational and warning alerts were generated. This will help administrators in proactively detecting issues in the target storage server and rectify them before any serious issues occur. Administrators can use the detailed diagnostics to figure out which alert was frequently generated and can use the alert message to identify the potential issues.
