Alerts Tab
Before you can execute Service Level Agreements (SLAs), you need to set up email alerts for notifications. By default, Arc uses the global settings on the Alerts tab. To use other settings for this connector, toggle Override global setting on.
By default, error alerts are enabled, which means that emails are sent whenever there is an error. To turn them off, uncheck the Enable checkbox.
Enter a Subject (mandatory), then optionally enter a comma-separated list of Recipient emails.
SLAs Tab
SLAs enable you to configure the volume you expect connectors in your flow to send or receive, and to set the time frame in which you expect that volume to be met. CData Arc sends emails to warn the user when an SLA is not met, and marks the SLA as At Risk, which means that if the SLA is not met soon, it will be marked as Violated.
To define an SLA, toggle Expected Volume on, then click the Settings tab.
- If your connector has separate send and receive actions, use the radio buttons to specify which direction the SLA pertains to.
- In the Expect at least portion of the window, set the minimum number of transactions you expect to be processed, use the Every fields to specify the time frame, indicate when the SLA should go into effect, and check the boxes for the days of the week.
- In the Set status to ‘At Risk’ portion of the window, specify when the SLA should be marked as at risk. Check Send an ‘At Risk’ notification to receive notifications before violation.
You can turn off SLA alerts during maintenance windows. Click Settings on the navbar, then navigate to Alerts > General Alerts. Click the tablet and pencil icon to edit, and uncheck the SLA Alerts setting.
