System and method for determining notification behavior of a system
First Claim
10. A system for dynamically controlling notification behavior comprising:
- a network;
a monitoring system further comprising;
a monitoring system computer processor;
a monitoring system network interface device electrically connected to the monitoring system computer processor to communicate data to a network;
a monitoring system computer readable memory containing a notification program executable by the monitoring system computer processor to;
load a set of configuration parameters;
determine if a first notification should be sent based on said set of configuration parameters and a system state of a system being monitored;
if the first notification should be sent, communicate said notification over said network;
receive an update to at least one configuration parameter of the set of configuration parameters during execution; and
send out at an additional notification based on the update to the at least one configuration parameter; and
a management system further comprising;
a management system computer processor;
a management system network interface device electrically connected to the monitoring system computer processor to communicate data to the network;
a management system computer readable memory containing a management program executable by the monitoring system computer processor to;
receive the first notification; and
communicate the update to at least one configuration parameter of the set of configuration parameters to the monitoring system.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a system and method for dynamically controlling the notification behavior of a system. One embodiment of the present invention can include a system for controlling notification behavior of a system comprising a notification program stored on a computer-readable memory. The notification program can be executable by a computer processor to determine a first notification mode based on a set of configuration parameters and a first-system state. The notification program can be further executable to determine if a notification should be sent out based a set of configuration parameters associated with first notification mode and, if a notification should be sent out, communicate the notification over a network. The notification program can also receive an updated configuration parameter associated with the first notification mode and send out a new notification based on the updated configuration parameter.

23. A system for controlling notification behavior of a system comprising a notification program stored on a computer-readable memory, executable by a computer processor to:
-
determine a first notification mode based a set of configuration parameters and the first system state for a system being monitored, wherein said set of configuration parameters defines at least two notification modes for a notification type;
determine if a first SNMP trap should be sent out based on the set of configuration parameters and the first notification mode; and
if the first SNMP trap should be sent out, communicate the first SNMP trap over a network. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A method for controlling notification behavior of a system comprising:
-
determining a first notification mode based a set of configuration parameters and the first system state for a system being monitored, wherein a plurality of notification modes are defined for a notification type;
determining if a notification should be sent out based on the set of configuration parameters and the first notification mode; and

33-1. The method of claim 31, further comprising:
receiving an updated configuration parameter associated with said first notification mode;
determining a new notification mode based on a new system state and the set of configuration parameters;
if the new notification mode is determined to be the first notification mode;
determining if a new notification should be sent out based on the updated set of configuration parameters;
if a new notification should be sent out, communicating the new notification over a network.
- 35. The method of claim 34, wherein the first notification and new notification are SNMP traps.

36. A system for controlling notification behavior of a system comprising a notification program stored on a computer-readable memory, executable by a computer processor to:
-
determine if a system state corresponds to a first notification mode based a set of configuration parameters and the system state for a system being monitored;
determine if a first notification should be sent out based on the set of configuration parameters and the first notification mode; and
if the first notification should be sent out, communicate the first notification over a network.
