Message Browser

Use the Message Browser task to view messages sent to IBM® Director Console as a result of an event action plan. The Message Browser is displayed automatically whenever a message is sent to the management console. You can choose to be notified in this manner when an event occurs by configuring an event action plan with the Send an Event Message to a Console User event action.

Note: The Message Browser does not display ticker-tape messages. Ticker-tape messages are sent as a result of an event action plan configured with the Add a Message to the Console Ticker Tape event action. A ticker-tape message can display, for example, resource-monitor data.
