Configuring the
The configuration file, file-notify.conf, configures the notifier. The original version of the file is located in BASEDIR/smarts/conf/notifier.
You should retain the original (unedited) version of the configuration file. If you intend to modify a configuration file, you should use the
sm_edit
utility provided with your VMware Smart Assurance
software. This ensures that you modify a copy of the file and the copy is placed in the proper local subdirectory.Do not change any of the parameters in the configuration file before starting this notifier. If you
decide to change a parameter, use the
sm_edit
utility to edit the configuration file. “Editing notification adapter files” on page 20 contains additional information on modifying files and using sm_edit
. If you edit the configuration
file while the notifier is running, restart the notifier so that it rereads its configuration file.
