Alerts - System

Select System from the Select Alert Function drop-down list

The Alerts - System page alerts for selected events occurring on the Kaseya Server. Selecting the Alerts - System page does not display a managed machine list. The events listed only apply to the Kaseya Server. This option only displays for master role users.
