Priority Alert

A priority alert can be launched by any VEMS Portal Server user with appropriate
permissions. It broadcasts a live or stored priority alert to specified VBricks or IPRs in case
of an emergency. The broadcast is launched instantly, for a specified duration, and preempts
all other broadcasts. (Any schedules whose start times occur during a priority alert are
discarded.) It is not subject to copyright restrictions or expiration dates. When done (or
manually stopped) all preempted schedules automatically resume. Priority alert templates are
pre-defined in advance by administrators as explained in the VEMS Portal Server Admin
Guide
