Connect to the Automated Operations Solution

If you want to run your System i unattended, Robot/ALERT, our System i messaging software is a critical element. Many products in the Robot Automated Operations Solution use Robot/ALERT.

• Robot/SCHEDULE sends an e-mail, pager, or text message when an important job fails.
• Robot/CONSOLE notifies you when an important message needs a response.
• Robot/AUTOTUNE lets you know when a performance problem crops up.
• Robot/SAVE sends you a message when it needs help finishing a backup.
• Robot/REPORTS e-mails reports to selected users.

Send messages from your System i to any device
While most people use Robot/ALERT to send messages from the Robot products to their operations staff, you also can embed Robot/ALERT commands in your own programs or send messages from the Robot Browser Interface. Robot/ALERT sends e-mail, pager, or text messages quickly and easily. Robot/ALERT can communicate with PDAs, PCs, cell phones, and pagers to keep your staff in touch with your System i no matter where they are. And, if your vendor supports two-way messaging, your users can answer the message directly from their devices without logging on to the System i.

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.

Communication made easy
You don't need new equipment or a different messaging service. Robot/ALERT takes care of the complexities for you. All you need is a communication line and an IBM-compatible modem or TCP/IP. Robot/GUIDE, the online assistant, makes setup a snap. Robot/ALERT works with any local or national paging service that uses the TAP industry-standard computer interface, so it supports the protocols of more than 90 paging services, including SkyTel.
