Configuring the Notify ARDBC plug-in

The Notify ARDBC plug-in adds real-time notifications functionality to BMC Remedy AR System applications and enables clients to receive notification about events in BMC Remedy AR Server.

You can modify the Notify ARDBC parameters in the pluginsvr_config.xml file located in the pluginsvr sub-directory of your AR System server installation directory:

<plugin>
      <name>BMC.ARDBC.NOTIFY</name>
      <type>ARDBC</type>
      <code>JAVA</code>
      <filename>C:\Program Files\BMC Software\ARSystem\Arserver\plugins\Notify\lib\notifyARDBCPlugin.jar</filename>
      <classname>com.bmc.ar.notify.NotifyARPlugin</classname>
      <userDefined>
        <notifyinstallpath>C:\Program Files\BMC Software\ARSystem\Arserver\plugins\Notify</notifyinstallpath>
        <ServerPort>1840</ServerPort>
        <ProtocolV1Encrypt>true</ProtocolV1Encrypt>
        <EventCache>200</EventCache>
        <VerifyLog>C:\Program Files (x86)\BMC Software\BPPMExtensions\NOTIFY-Plugin-status.log</VerifyLog>
      </userDefined>
    </plugin>

After you make changes to these parameters, restart BMC Remedy AR System for the changes to take effect.
