I am using version 6.4 and would like to send a text message to a cell phone if a job fails. Can this be done? If so can you point me to the documentaion?

Thank you.

Ask your cell phone carrier what is the e-mail address for your SMS. In North America, many carriers allows SMS be sent to <cell>@<carrier>

Once you have a valid address, you can send to SMS using shout or e-mail in Control-M. Just watch for the length of message when sending to SMS.
