(Optional) Enable notifications of batch processes

Scheduler can monitor batch events and send notification by email when a batch process finishes or when a batch event starts.

Note: If servers that use different languages run batch events or send messages, the email can contain text in all of the languages.

1. Select Administration > Application Setup > System Configuration > System Settings > Batch Service tab.
2. Enable email:

   • site.BatchService.monitorService.enables

   • Select true.
3. Send an email notification when the batch event starts:

   • site.BatchService.notifyLaunch

   • Select true.

4. (Optional) Configure system settings

   • site.BatchService.monitorPollingInterval

     The polling interval, in milliseconds: 1000 = 1 second, 60,000 = 1 minute

   • site.BatchService.monitorMaximumReportErrors

     Enter the maximum number of error messages to include.

   • site.BatchService.monitorControllerName

     Name of the batch monitor controller daemon.

     Default = BatchMonitorService Controller

   • site.BatchService.monitorWorkerName

     Name of the batch monitor worker daemon.

     Default = BatchMonitorService Worker

   • site.BatchService.monitorOmitReportIds

     • False = Enable debugging.
     • True = Disable debugging.
5. Restart the application.
6. Update the silver data for email:
   1. In WPK.properties:

      • com.kronos.WFD.wfp.silverdata.loadateachstartup

      • Select true.

      Important: After you reload silver data, reset this property to false.

   2. Remove rows for the default batch events from the XMLData table.
   3. Remove all relevant rows from the tables:
      • RequestXMLData
      • EventMgrTask
      • EventTaskEntry
   4. Restart the application.
   5. The correct silver data loads. If needed, edit the silver data.
   6. For user-defined batch events configured before the upgrade, remove those events. Re-create the batch events.
