Deployment

The Notification Service can be deployed on any system, including physical devices and Docker Appliance Containers.

When a Notification Service configuration is enabled, notifications are only sent for new operations that occur after that point. When a configuration is disabled, no notifications are sent and they are not queued up for future reference. Any operations that occur after the configuration is disabled do not generate notifications.

A container vault can be configured to generate notifications for specific containers or for all containers in the vault without the need to enable notifications at each container. See managerapi2004.html
