Modifying Monitoring Policy Details

  • Last updated on

You can rename a monitoring policy to a name that makes sense in your environment. You can also modify its description.

You can assign search tags to monitoring policies to make them easier to locate when adding the monitoring policy to a service, or when applying it directly to a group. When adding a monitoring policy to a service or applying one to a group, you can narrow the list of monitoring policies to choose from by selecting one of the search tags from a drop list in the upper right corner. Any monitoring policies with that search tag are listed, letting you locate and add the monitoring policies you need easily. Note that when you assign a search tag to a monitoring policy, you are selecting from a list of predefined search tags, such as "application" or "Linux".

Barracuda RMM allows you to rename a monitoring policy with the same name as an existing monitoring policy. This is because Barracuda RMM uses a GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) internally. This GUID is generated automatically for each monitoring policy, is unique when created, and is not duplicated (and it is not visible in the user interface).

  1. In Service Center, click Configuration > Policies > Monitoring.
  2. Click the name of the monitoring policy.
  3. Click Modify.
  4. Edit the name and description, if desired.
  5. To assign a search tag to the monitoring policy, click in the Tags box. A list appears with pre-populated search tags. Click the name of the tag you want to associate with the monitoring policy.
