Windchill RV&S Server Alert Messages
From the Windchill RV&S, you can send alert messages to all users currently logged in to the Windchill RV&S server. Sending alert messages is useful for notifying users about important information, such as an impending server upgrade in which the server will be shut down.
Key Considerations
• You need the mks:AdminServer permission to create and clear alert messages. For a proxy server, you need the mks:im:AdminProxy or mks:si:AdminProxy permission.
• You can create one message for a given server at a single time. Creating a new message deletes the previous message.
• Alert messages are stored in the server’s memory. If the server shuts down, the message is deleted.
• If a user connects to the server after a message is sent, the user still receives the message.
• Alert messages are plain text only and allow a maximum 4000 KB.
• In the Web interface, the date displayed for an alert message is the server’s date, time, and time zone. In the GUI and CLI, the date displayed for an alert message is the client’s date, time, and time zone.
