Alert subscriptions for non-administrators

  1. Last updated
  2. Save as PDF

By default, all the administrators are subscribed to alerts. Druva allows administrators to subscribe other non-administrators to receive alerts in the event of job failures, reports, and so on. A cloud and cloud-derived administrator can configure other non-administrators to receive alerts for all organizations. An organization and organization-derived administrator can configure other non-administrators to receive alerts only for the organization to which an organization administrator has access to. The group or a group-derived administrator cannot configure non-administrators to receive alerts. However, the group administrator can only view the list of non-administrators subscribed to the administrative groups. 

Cloud and cloud-derived administrators can also view, add, edit, and delete alert subscriptions for non-administrators for all organizations. Organization and organization-derived administrators can view, add, edit, and delete alert subscriptions for non-administrators for organizations that they have access to. Group and group-derived administrators can only view the list of non-administrators for the administrative groups they have access to; however, they cannot manage alert subscriptions for non-administrators.
