No emails being issued by grid control

Question

I am trying to configure GC to send emails. From the preferences page I have added an email address. I have also added an email in the setup, notification methods page.
When I test these I get an email as expected.
I then set up a test with the archive metric. I set the threshold down to 2%
I then set up the relevent notification rule and check the email tab.
then I force the archive area over the 2% threshold and wait for an email. I can see the error on the database page on grid control but do not get an email.
I have set the metric to email on critical and warning
regards
Alan

Answer 1

Check the plan action
Go to Grid control and select the database target
In the home page of databse go down and search Metrics and Polycy settings . Select this
In the page of metrics enable ALL METRICS and search the metric of ARCHIVE AREA used or ARCHIVE AREA FREE % . Put values in CRITICAL and WARNING THERESHOLDS.
When you finish apply the changes
Go to the PREFERENCES page and CREATE A NOTIFICATION RULE
Give NAME to rule and description -- Archiver Rule
In the targets select the database of first step
In the metrics section press the add button
Select the metrics of ARCHIVE AREA monitoring and enable the CRITICAL and WARNING checkbox if yo want notifications for both events
Not select jobs and in the last page enable the checkbox of mail sender
Remember that the metrics in the database must be critical and warning thresholds. The rule not send mail of metrics that not have values . But if you see the alert in grid control console and you dont receive mail, the procedure is create a rule or edit any that exists and add the metrics for archiver monitoring
