The VMware Smart Assurance Notification Module (NOTIF) augments VMware Smart Assurance solutions with event management features that are configured through a graphical user interface (the NOTIF Editor). NOTIF enables the user to easily optimize the flow of events and notifications sent through any VMware Smart Assurance system. NOTIF can be installed on a SAM server and/or an Adapter Platform server. The internal event and notification processing features of the standard SAM Adapter Platform are replaced by NOTIF.

The VMware Smart Assurance Notification Module User Guide includes information on NOTIF functionality and architecture.
