NetBackup Operations Manager has come a long way from  times when some of us would scrape information from bpdbjobs  and email it off with job information. I don't miss the custom scripts needed for each alert or report, but I do miss the ability to attach custom information to an alert.

A must have enhancement for NOM is the ability to attach a report, (Public, Standard, Private) to an alert. Ideally the alert would be mobile user friendly - an abbreviated standard message when sent to mobile users, and a more detailed report (as determined by the user) sent to those with full screen devices.

Cool!

That's a cool idea. We've talked alot about customizable alert text, but the notion of a report attachment is intriguing. We've done that with VBR reports which only get sent when an exceptional condition occurs, but your request is slightly different.
