100.0. "Inconsistant Displays" by SIOG::M_BYRNE () Mon Oct 11 1993 12:57

    Hi Folks,
    
    		I have a Customer currently using VCS to monitor systems on
    multiple sites. They also have the situation of multiple output
    displays of events with the monitors on different sites. They have
    noticed that when an event occurs all display monitors update with that
    event. However if one of display monitors is then used to clear the
    event, there is no automatic update of the other monitors. This causes
    inconsistant displays and hence confusion at certain times. 
    
    Will the ConsoleManager product incorporate a feature to deal with
    keeping displays consistant?
    
    Rgrds and thanks

Yes. And even more, with CM you are able to acknowledge an event so that ALL
people running other monitors see that 'Mister X' has seen the problem and is
working on it ...

When solved, you clear the event and other monitors are updated.

Great product !

Marc.

  Nope, this will be available in V1.1 of  Console Manager, the planned
  release is around the April timeframe next calendar year. V1.0 is
  currently released and shipping on ULTRIX only.

  Please note that although you can "acknowledge" and "clear" events,
  this information is not added to the event log for any particular
  system, we will be adding this "feature" in a future release (after
  V1.1).

  Thanks for the praise Marc, we are only too pleased to have implemented
  something people actually want.

Cheers,
Phil
