Announcement: Availability of the Platform Computing Severity 1 PMR Notification Service

The “Severity 1 PMR Notification service” is a free service for Platform Computing products that sends an automatic email notification when a Severity 1 PMR (production cluster down) from your ICN is created, elevated (from a lower severity), downgraded (to a lower severity) or resolved.

The benefits of this notification include:
· You are informed in real-time of a production cluster outage, whether you are a System Administrator, Manager, or CIO, so that you can mobilize your own team as needed.

· You have the peace of mind that IBM Platform Computing Product Support Engineers/Management, and your account team, have also been informed in real time, and that IBM Support has started working towards a resolution.
