Notification Manager Overview

The Notification Manager component can help you implement automated notification policies and procedures in your operations. The following Notification procedures are included:

• Numeric paging
• Alphanumeric paging
• Two-way paging
• Networked text-to-speech messages
• Email
• SMS (using two-way paging protocols or email)
• Voice notification
• Solicitation of input through DTMF (telephone keypad) tones
• Pre-recorded or dynamically built messages
• Recording and forwarding of messages
• Various combinations of these methods.

At its highest level, Notification Manager exposes a single program interface for use in a notification. This interface is facilitated through the NMFIND.REX REXX program. By calling the NMFIND program with the appropriate parameters from CA Automation Point rules or your own REXX programs, you can perform notification functions.
