Abstract
A system allows software not equipped to work with remote location alert reporting software to obtaining alert data indicating an alert associated with a first managed resource in a storage area network. The system identifies a top-level resource in the storage area network to which the first managed resource indicated by the alert data is related and performs remote alert notification analysis to determine if the top-level resource is a managed resource in the storage area network for which remote location alert reporting software is not operational. If the top-level resource is a managed resource for which remote location alert reporting software is not operational, the system proxy engages operation of remote location alert reporting software on behalf of the top-level resource to report the alert data via the communications interface to the remote location.
