Deactivating monitors

In the Monitors modeling page, select one or more monitors to deactivate and click the Deactivate button. The monitors stop evaluating incoming documents and sending alerts.

Note: All data recorded by a monitor, such as the multiple occurrence counter and elapsed waiting time, is removed. See the example.

Example

A multi-occurrence monitor sends an alert if the monitor rule evaluates to true five times within one hour. After 45 minutes, the rule has been evaluated to true four times, so the multiple occurrence counter is 4. You deactivate the monitor. The multiple occurrence counter and the elapsed waiting time (45 minutes) are reset to 0. When you reactivate the monitor, the monitor starts again.
