1.3.3 Error detection and reporting

JP1/IM - Manager supports automated actions as a means of detecting and reporting problems in the system. An automated action is the automatic execution of a command on a host managed by JP1/IM - Manager when a particular JP1 event is received. Commands for sending an email or making a telephone call can be executed as automated actions, notifying the administrator of any problems occurring in the system.
