Custom notifications

DriveLock displays user notifications to the end user to inform them of changes, such as device or drive locks or shares. You can use predefined notifications (from DriveLock) or customize the texts based on your preferences. In the following places in the DMC these notifications can be customized:

  • On the final page of the wizard where you configure the agent user interface.

  • In this node for the temporary unlock of the DriveLock agent (see figure).

  • In the Multilingual notification messages node under Languages / Standard messages. For more information, please visit here.

  • In the Settings for Drives, Devices and Applications as specific user notifications for these three areas.

On tab General you can select the following options for temporary unlock:

  • Show message just before temporary unlock ends : This option is enabled by default. If necessary, you can set the time here for the notification to appear.

  • Use custom message: Enable this option if you want to specify your own texts. The following variables are used:

    • %USER%: will be replaced by the administrator's user name when displayed.

    • %TIME%:is replaced by the time of release when displaying. You can configure different messages depending on the time in minutes or a time period used for the release.

You can use Test to display the message.

The options on Temporary Share are active only when you use custom messages. Here you can adjust messages for the duration of the short-term release.

If you have already specified a language in the Languages / Standard Messages sub-node of the Multilingual notification messages node and defined texts there, you can no longer make any entries here.
