Fix Pack 1

Alerts dashboard

Use the Alerts dashboard to view information based on the alerts that you create in Log Analysis.

This feature is not available in the Entry Edition.

The data that is displayed on the dashboard is based on the last time data from one of the data sources used for alerts was loaded into Log Analysis. This means that there is a delay between changes to your alerts and the information that is displayed on the dashboard. In this case, you need to wait until data is loaded into Log Analysis again to see the latest data.

If the dashboard does not display any data, ensure that the time that you specified matches a period when alerts were created.
