Configuring push notifications
Push notifications enable OpenManage Mobile to notify you when a subscribed OpenManage Essentials
console receives alerts from a monitored device. The notification appears in the status bar of your mobile
device, similar to notifications that are displayed for messages, downloads, and so on. OpenManage
Mobile allows you to configure the type of push notification you want to receive.

1. On the OpenManage Mobile home screen, tap the overflow menu.
Overflow symbol differs from device to device. For example, it can be displayed as a symbol, or
at the lower-left or lower-right corner of the screen next to the Home button.
2. In the list that is displayed, tap Settings.
The Settings page is displayed.
3. Tap Notification Settings.
The Notification Settings screen is displayed.
4. Select one or both of the following:
•Play Sound to enable your mobile device to play a sound when an alert is received.
•Vibrate to enable your mobile device to vibrate when an alert is received.
