How does certificate notification work in Learning Management System and Workplace Collaboration Learning?
|
| | | | Question | | How does certificate notification work in IBM Lotus Learning Management System® (LMS) and IBM® Workplace™ Collaborative Learning? | | | | | Answer | When a record is added to the CERTIFICATE table, the WARNING_EMAIL_SENT column is set to Null.
The LMS code to trigger certificate expiration warnings works as follows:
-- A task ("module.CertificateCheckTask.1") is launched according to the schedule set in the settings.xml file (default is once every 6 hours).
-- This task first finds all active certificates (STATE = 1) that will expire on or before the first warning period as specified in the settings.xml file as "certFirstReminderPeriod" (such as 10 days) based upon the current date. This gives us the set of certificates with the potential of requiring the generation of a warning e-mail.
-- The task then looks for those certificates in that set with an expiration date that falls within the range of the value specified for the "certFirstReminderPeriod" and the "certSecondReminderPeriod" (such as 5 days) based upon the current date. If any of those records do not have the WARNING_EMAIL_SENT column set to 1, meaning the first warning email was not generated, the warning e-mail is generated and the WARNING_EMAIL_SENT Column is set to 1.
-- The task then looks for those certificates in the set with an expiration date that falls within the range of the value specified for the "certSecondReminderPeriod" and the "certThirdReminderPeriod" (e.g., 1 day), again based on the current date. If any of those records do not have the WARNING_EMAIL_SENT column set to 2 (meaning the second warning e-mail was not generated), the second warning e-mail is generated and the WARNING_EMAIL_SENT column is set to 2.
-- Finally, the task looks for those certificates in the set with an expiration date that falls within the range of the value specified for the "certThirdReminderPeriod" and the current date. If any of those records do not have the WARNING_EMAIL_SENT column set to 3 (meaning the third warning e-mail was not generated), that warning e-mail is generated and the WARNING_EMAIL_SENT column is set to 3. | | | | | | | | Cross Reference information | | Segment | Product | Component | Platform | Version | Edition | | Organizational Productivity- Portals & Collaboration | Workplace Collaborative Learning | Notifications | AIX, i5/OS, Linux, Solaris, Windows | 2.7, 2.6, 2.5 | |
