Lab Overview

SolarWinds provides hundreds of out-of-the-box alerts that address the most common problems, like nodes going down, applications going down, SSL certs expiring, and even websites failing.

Many of these predefined alerts are enabled by default when you deploy SAM, so that you are notified about issues immediately, once Discovery has found the servers and applications in your environment. However, you can also create custom alerts when needed.
