As Fred mentions, it is only the Alert Tool desktop client that has reached its end of life. The functionality on the server side remains.

What you are talking about is having a program running on the Netcool object server that uses the Remedy API or a web service to listen for alerts. Check the 7.6.04 Configuration guide starting on page 256 for more info.

Basically they have filters executing on modify or delete with a Notify mechanism = Alert action back to the omnibus user for bi-directional communication. With 7.6.04 moving exclusively to web client and off the WUT and Alert User what is the roadmap for the Alert functionality? I would hate to implement a solution using this gateway if BMC direction is to obsolete the Alert notification functionality. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v8r1/topic/com.ibm.netcool_OMNIbus.doc/remgw-pdf.pdf Regards, Andrew C.
