IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Application Diagnostics, Version 7.1.0.4

Setting up the email host

The ITCAM for Application Diagnostics includes a traps feature that enables you to have email messages sent when certain thresholds are reached. For this feature to work correctly, the SMTP host must be specified.

Important: The Performance Analysis & Reporting (PAR) section and the Traps section do not send email reports unless this step is completed.

To do this, edit the file:

MS_home/etc/md.properties

Then specify the correct IP address or fully qualified host name of the SMTP host. (A valid email server is required; contact your email Administrator for this information) for property as:

smtp.host=aa.bb.cc.dd

Substitute the IP address or fully qualified host name of the SMTP host for aa.bb.cc.dd .

Important: If your Managing Server Visualization Engine is not running on default port 9080, you must set up the Visualization Engine port for email notifications. See Setting up the Visualization Engine port for email notifications.
