Using the Notification Center 
The Notification Center lists the past week of system notifications available to your scope and tenancy according to the current toolbar filters. Notifications are generated based on the settings in System | System Action Center and can help you keep tabs on important system events related to:
-
Case Management – Get notifications when cases are assigned, closed, escalated, created, updated, or have a score that meets or exceeds a specified threshold.
-
Cluster Health – Find out proactively when either the Data Analyzer (DA) or Data Lake (DL) cluster's health is in the red state.
-
Connector Monitoring – Get notifications when specified connectors haven't sent data over a given time interval so you can address issues in real time.
-
Data Storage Capacity – Find out when your data storage is reaching either its soft or hard cap.
-
Device Sensor Monitoring – Get notifications for different device sensor health issues (for example, no data or heartbeats).
-
Disk Capacity – Get notified when root disk usage is reaching its limit.
-
NFS Data Sink Capacity – Get notifications when NFS Data Sink storage is reaching either its soft or hard cap.
-
Scheduled Report Monitoring – Get notifications when a scheduled report fails.
-
Server Sensor Monitoring – Get notifications when server sensors experience a change in status, stop sending data, or stop sending heartbeats.
-
User Modifications – Get notifications for a wide variety of events related to user accounts and RBAC policies.
Refer to Best Practices for the System Action Center for guidance on ways you can configure notifications effectively in your organization.
