Remote notification and node failure
If a node fails and triggers a page or cell phone message, the remote notification is sent from the node with the next highest priority.
(A node's order of priority is determined by the order in which you listed node names when you defined the method.) If the next highest priority node is up but unable to send the remote notification for some other reason (for instance, the modem is not connected), the system attempts to resend the remote notification message for the number of times specified in the Retry Counter. If the remote notification still cannot be sent, it fails. The remote notification is not passed on to be issued from another node.
