I can definitely see both sides to the argument. My view is that alerts should reflect reality, and that nobody is omniscient. If system XYZ is going down, then the normal "XYZ going down" alert(s) should get sent. There's nothing that prevents sending additional alerts, though. I also get very nervous when manual steps are required to reenable alerts, even leaving aside the potential security issues. To err is human. - - - - - Timothy Sipples Resident Enterprise Architect STG Value Creation & Complex Deals Team IBM Growth Markets (Based in Singapore) E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
