Creating Custom Email Alerts in PI 7.4

Hi Experts,

I have read Aashish Sinha's blogs on creating custom email alerts.  In part 2 he uses the File Adapter to retrieve the messages, but fails to mention the file path where he retrieves these messages from.  Can someone tell me where you retrieve the messages from?

Thanks in advance.

David

Hi David,

  • Actually the alerts will be stored in JMS queue in PI server, Each consumer will have separate JMS queue.
  • System will write the alerts to these queues as soon as error in the system
  • PI provides standard web service to retrieve the alerts from the above queues
  • So you can a file adapter in sender side and give any path of your choice but inside the file you need to mention the ConsumerID then based on this ID web service will read the alerts from respective JMS queue and give the response.
  • This response he is sending it to mail.

Regards,

Praveen.

Thanks Raghuraman, but as I stated in the opening message I have read Aashish Sinha's blogs, that being part 1.  He talks about setting up the AlertConsumerJob and sending an email via the Java Mail service.  I am doing that alerady, however, as he states, the email is unreadable without some knowledge of PI.  This email will be going to support staff who do not understand PI.  So I need a cleaner email.
