# created from the default Alert Group file ($SADMIN/cfg/.alert_group.cfg).
# - Blank line or line beginning with a pound sign (#) are ignored.

# who to alert.

# section at the beginning of your script.
# Shell Script :
# export SADM_ALERT_TYPE=3 # 0=NoAlert 1=OnlyOnError 2=OnlyOnSucces 3=Always
# export SADM_ALERT_GROUP="default" # AlertGroup name for Alert (alert_group.cfg)
