7.6.7 Configuring Dial-Out Alert
When you are not monitoring the system from a modem connection,
you can use the RMC dial-out alert feature to remain informed of
system status. If dial-out alert is enabled, and the RMC detects alarm
conditions within the managed system, it can call a preset pager
number.
You must configure remote dial-in for the dial-out feature to be enabled. See
Section 7.6.6.
To set up the dial-out alert feature, connect to the RMC CLI from the local
serial terminal or local VGA monitor.
Example 7–9 Dial-Out Alert Configuration

A typical alert situation might be as follows:
•
The RMC detects an alarm condition, such as over temperature warning.
•
The RMC dials your pager and sends a message identifying the system.
•
You dial the system from a remote serial terminal.
•
You connect to the RMC CLI, check system status with the env command,
and, if the situation requires, power down the managed system.
• When the problem is resolved, you power up and reboot the system.
