Eric,

I normally use the SNMP protocol to send the message to an OpenView
station which set the alarm to a System Console and from there through
SMS to some cellular phones.
In one year of intense activity, I received three serious intervention
requests, the 3494 dropped a cassette twice and the gripper went crazy
once.

Ciao - Mauro, STM
