6 OpenManage Mobile Best Practices | Revision 1.0
All Alert View Filters that are seen in OME’s Alert portal are available as push notification subscription filters
when the OME connection is initially created or edited in OMM. If administrators in your organization
periodically rotate roles, it may be easier to reassign filters among administrators, rather than edit the
filters.
To change alert filters in OMM:
1. Verify network connectivity between the mobile device and the OME management system exists
(i.e., secure Wi-Fi or VPN).
2. From the home screen in OMM, long press on the OME instance and select Edit Instance.
3. Click Next to go to the Set Alert Subscription page.
4. Select the alert filter from the drop-down list (Figure 2).
Figure 2 OMM Alert Subscription Settings
Notifications can be disabled from OMM, OME, or the Android device settings. It may be useful to
temporarily disable notifications at certain times, such as when on vacation. To disable notifications from
within OMM, uncheck the Enable Push Notifications box from within the Set Alert Subscription page.
If an alert filter used by OMM includes more than 100 alerts/day, notifications may be throttled by Google
and not received until after a delay of up to several hours.
