The Scheduled Job Notifications tab lets you generate emails and SNMP traps when a scheduled job completes. Any notifications defined here override default job notifications.

The Scheduled Job Notifications tab also lets you send email messages and generate SNMP traps when any change to a snapshot occurs. This capability provides a simple mechanism for tracking configuration changes. Note that the first time a Snapshot Job runs, no changes are detected because the first run establishes a baseline against which future changes are tracked.

Job Run Notifications

FieldDescription

Send email to

Lists email addresses of the accounts to notify when a job completes with the status that you specify. Separate multiple email addresses with semicolons, such as sysadmin@bmc.com;sysmgr@bmc.com. After entering email address information, check the statuses that cause an email to be generated. The statuses can be Success, Failed, or Aborted.

Send SNMP trap to

Provides name or IP address of the server to notify when the job completes. After entering server information, select the statuses that should cause an SNMP trap to be generated. The statuses can be Success, Failed, or Aborted.

BMC Server Automation provides a management information base (MIB) that describes its SNMP trap structure. You can use this MIB to create scripts that integrate traps into your trap collection system. The MIB is located on the Application Server host computer at installDirectory/Share/BladeLogic.mib.
