Configure Announcements

Reservation Manager can display an optional Announcements pane on the end-user home page. Use announcements to communicate key operational information and news to users, such as planned and unplanned outages, new system or image support, and so on.

To configure announcements

  1. As an administrator on the Reservation Manager home page, click Manage your configuration settings.

    The Configure Settings page opens.

  2. Click the following link in the General area:
    Announcements
  3. Open the directory where Announcements.html is located, and modify the text.

    Important! If you edit the Announcements file, save it with UTF-8 encoding. Non-English operating systems have multibyte characters that must be saved with UTF-8 encoding. Microsoft Windows Notepad can save with UTF-8 encoding.

  4. Save and close the file.

    The announcement change is made when you restart the browser.
