Summary:A method, system and computer program product. A first computer device identifies a notifiable management event relating to the first computer device, wherein the first computer device is unable to notify a management device of the notifiable management event via a management network because the first computer device is unable to connect to the management network. The first computer device sends, to a second computer device via a broadcast or multicast communication, an event notification of the notifiable management event. The first computer device receives, from the second computer device via a first unicast communication, an acknowledgement of the event notification, wherein the second computer device is able to connect to the management network. The broadcast or multicast communication and the first unicast communication each use a short-range wireless communications technology.
