Business Continuity Manager alerts notify a DBA of an event that requires attention.
The alert codes in Business Continuity Manager are five-digit numeric codes. The first two digits of each alert code begin with '40'. For example, error code 40032 indicates an unrecoverable object. In a few examples, you may see the alert codes expressed as a three-digit number, and in such cases, prefix '40' to the alert code, depending on the command.
A summary of currently open alerts appears on the Alerts card of the Business Continuity Manager UI Overview screen. From this view, you can sort by alert types and severity. Select the alert name to see the details for each alert type.
