Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub UpdateNotification ( _
    operatorName As String, _
    notifymethod As NotifyMethods _
)
public void UpdateNotification (
    string operatorName,
    NotifyMethods notifymethod
)
public:
void UpdateNotification (
    String^ operatorName, 
    NotifyMethods notifymethod
)
public void UpdateNotification (
    String operatorName, 
    NotifyMethods notifymethod
)
public function UpdateNotification (
    operatorName : String, 
    notifymethod : NotifyMethods
)

Parameters

  • operatorName
    A String value that specifies the name of the operator.
  • notifymethod
    A NotifyMethods object value that specifies the notification method.

Remarks

The AddNotification method associates operators with alerts. Designated operators receive notification messages when an event raising an alert occurs. When an alert is raised, notification can be sent using e-mail, network pop-up message, or pager. The AddNotification method allows specification of one or more notification mechanisms when operators are assigned notification for an alert.

The RemoveNotification method removes all operator notification mechanisms for an alert. Use the UpdateNotification method to alter the notification mechanism without dropping the association between an alert and the operator.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the .NET Framework.
