alert configuration

[Former Member]

Hi

Alerts configuration starts with ALRTCATDEF. And "whenever an error occurs" alert can be seen in the alert inbox. Can anybody tell me what are all the error situations in which alerts will be raised ?? I have in most of the blogs........ simply they select wild card entry " * ' to set the alert rule.

thanks

Kumar,

You can define Mapping alerts and Adapter errors. If anything is failed in your mapping you can send a mapping alert.

If anything is failed in your sender or receiver adapter then you can the adapter alert to your inbox.

Hi satish,

As you said like......... alerts will be raised when problem exists in either mapping or sender and receiver adapters. I want to confirm whether it is possible to restrict the alerts to raise for particular user specific problem ?? Because if we see the window of alert rule there are simply options like sender service, receiver service, party........etc. So it seems here we can only put restrictions on the systems rather than problems.

thanks

Hi Palnati,

Triggering of alert cannot be made user specific...What u can do most is that u can configure the alert and add a particular user only in ur recipients list so that notifications can be restricted to particular user only ...

Hi Kumar,

<i>As you said like......... alerts will be raised when problem exists in either mapping or sender and receiver adapters</i>

Ususally purpose of alert are error notification. <b>But not always</b>.

e.g Suppose there is a scenario: If a user has applied for a leave from one system to another, the alert should be raised for a particular interface and this should be notified to XYZ Administrator. (Just an example, may not exactly suit the real world scenario)

<i>I want to confirm whether it is possible to restrict the alerts to raise for particular user specific problem ??</i>

Both Yes and No. Yes, if the user specific problem is related to trigger of interface, mapping problem etc. No if user has some other specifc demands.

Talking in terms of typical "user specific problem", the ans would be No.
