  Robot/ALERT  
Send and respond to iSeries events and messages via text messages (SMS), Network Messages (SNMP), pages or emails on a mobile device!
You can keep your staff in touch with your iSeries systems no matter where they are. All you need is Robot/ALERT, our iSeries messaging software. Sending pager or e-mail messages from an iSeries to any device--palm devices, PCs, mobile phones, and pagers is fast and easy. If your vendor supports two-way messaging, your users can answer the message directly from their devices. Send messages from the iSeries, or from a workstation using Robot/ALERT's Web browser interface.

Connect to the Robot Automated Operations Solution:
With Robot/ALERT, you can run your iSeries system unattended. Every product in the Robot Automated Operations Solution can use Robot/ALERT to call for help.

  • When an important job fails, Robot/SCHEDULE sends a page or e-mail message.
  • When an important message needs a response, Robot/CONSOLE sends you the message.
  • When a performance problem crops up, Robot/AUTOTUNE lets you know.
  • When the power fails, Robot/UPS pages you.
  • When Robot/SAVE needs help finishing a backup, it sends you a message.
  • And, Robot/REPORTS uses Robot/ALERT to e-mail your reports.

Use e-mail for total system coverage and fast message response
Sometimes paging alone isn't enough--people don't answer pages, or pagers quit working. Critical system messages can be missed and your operators may be unaware. Robot/ALERT also can e-mail important system events to the people that need to know. You can send e-mail regarding backups, system messages, schedule information, performance issues, storage thresholds, and network events. And, you can send IFS file attachments, such as PDF files, with your e-mail message.

You can now also send simple network management protocol (SNMP) traps out via Robot/ALERT. This universal network message format is supported by most enterprise management systems and network automation solutions.

Broadcast your message
Use Robot/ALERT's powerful broadcast list feature to send a message to all of the people in the list or just the person on duty. Robot/ALERT checks the work schedules of the people listed and sends the message to the correct person. In an emergency, you can escalate the problem through a chain of command until it gets a response.
