Notifications in OpsControl
The Notifications define which Notifications are displayed for the users.
In the top right of the screen the user can select the Notifications icon to access the panel.

All notifications since the last login will be shown in a list that can be scrolled, with the most recent Notification at the top. Normal Notifications are shown with a blue outline as shown below and only open when commanded by clicking the Notifications icon above.
Notifications remain for 24 hours, and the user can scroll up and down to view them.

Notifications can also be configured as Warnings and Alerts. Warnings and Alerts are shown with red and yellow borders (Warnings are deemed more serious than Alerts).
