Configuring email notifications for deployments

You can configure the release server to send e-mail to specific users when an event that is related to a deployment plan, segment, or task occurs during a deployment. You can set the initial SMTP options in the IBM® Installation Manager during the installation process. You can change the options at any time by editing the server.properties file. You must restart the release server after editing the file.

About this task

For example, the server can send a message when a task starts, fails, or requires user input to complete. You must configure these options separately for each deployment.

Procedure

  1. Click Home > Deployments.
  2. On the Calendar tab, click the deployment time.
  3. On the Contents and Notifications tab in the Notification Configuration section, click Deployment Plan, Segment, or Task and provide details.
    Tip: You can also configure notifications based on a recurring rule. To email an owner of a manual task in a recurring rule when a task requires user input, select Manual Task Notification.
