Audit Job - Default Notifications
The Default Notifications panel provides options for defining default notifications that are generated when a job completes. If you have set up notifications for a particular scheduled job, those notifications are generated instead of default notifications. Default notifications can also provide information about Audit Job results.
Default notifications can take the form of emails or SNMP traps. When a job completes, an SNMP trap is sent to a specified server, where it can be read using software that receives and interprets SNMP traps. Default notifications are sent when you run a job immediately (that is, you do not schedule the job) or a scheduled job completes but you have not set up email or SNMP notifications for that scheduled occurrence.
The Default Notifications panel also lets you define email messages and SNMP traps that are generated based on the results of an Audit Job. You can send notifications when targets have consistent configurations, inconsistent configurations, or both.

The statuses can be Success, Failed, or Aborted. TrueSight 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. |
