Setting Up Notification
46 Command Console V2.5 User Guide
Setting Up Pager Notification
You can set up Command Console to notify you by pager when a critical event
occurs. This feature works with alphanumeric and numeric pagers. You can
configure paging to notify multiple pagers for multiple storage subsystems within
different blocks of time. For example, if several people monitor your network in
shifts, you can configure paging so the software pages only those people working
the current shift. You can also temporarily disable any pager.
To receive pages, the following must occur:
■ The AES must be running on the client system on which you set up the pager
notification.
■ The Agent must be running.
■ The client system must be added to the Agent’s list of client system entries.
■ In the Agent’s list of client system entries, you must select the TCP/IP
notification scheme for your client system.
■ You must add the Agent system to the Navigation tree of the client system on
which you set up pager notification.
Note: Pager notification uses the Telocator Alphanumeric Protocol (TAP) adopted in
1988 by the Personal Communications Industry Association (PCIA). Verify that your
paging company uses this protocol.
Table 9 lists and describes the steps to use to set up pager notification.
