When this component is selected, the notification messages are sent to a file.
The file can be a plain file or stdout or stderr.
The MCA parameter "notifier_file_name" can be used to specify the suffix of the file the notification messages should be sent to.
The default suffix is "wdc" and the file full name is "output-wdc".
