Applies To:
DynaCenter Console 1.0 and later (running on DynaCenter 6.1.0 and later)
Prerequisite:
This article assumes that sendmail is installed and correctly configured on the server where the DynaCenter Console is installed.
Background:
You can configure the DynaCenter Console to send an email notification when each migration or sync task is completed.
Note: This feature might not work with some email providers that reject emails from unrecognized servers. Other providers might accept these notifications but mark them as spam.
Resolution:
1. On the server where the DynaCenter Console is installed, open the following file in a text editor:
/opt/race/tomcat/apache-tomcat-8.0.12/webapps/console-services/WEB-INF/classes/console.properties
2. Set the following values in the console.properties file:
# this setting is used to provide a hypertext URL link within the email to allow the user to conveniently return to the Console
email_console_hostname=<external_IP_address>
# this setting will appear to be the email sender.
email_from_address=<address_to_send_notifications_from>
# this setting is the addresses the email will be sent to.
email_to_addresses=<comma_separated_list_of_recipient_addresses>
Example
email_console_hostname=dcconsole1.mycompany.com
email_from_address=jdoe@mycompany.com
email_to_addresses=jdoe@mycompany.com,jsmith@anothercompany.com
3. Save the changes.
4. Restart the Console services so that your changes can take effect:
service dcconsole restart
