The EmailPlusConfig record type contains the main controls
for configuring the package.
There
must be exactly one EmailPlusConfig record. It controls the operation
of the package and records some configuration parameters.
- EmailPlus Active check box
- The generation of email notifications is controlled globally by
the EmailPlus Active check box. When the check
box is cleared, no email notifications are generated. You might want
to clear this check box before performing a maintenance activity on
the database so that email notifications are not generated during
maintenance.
- CQ Email Admin field
- If there are problems sending email, EmailPlus generates a notification
of the fault and sends it to the ClearQuest® user
identified in the CQ Email Admin field. The
user who is identified in CQ Email Admin field
must have the email address defined in the IBM® Rational® ClearQuest user database.
If this field is blank, no notifications are sent about email sending
failures. The level of detail that the notifications include depends
upon the transport mechanism that is used and what the mechanism reports,
if anything.
- Site Configurations field
- The Site Configurations field is a list
of references to EmailPlusSiteConfig records that define the information
for each site in the ClearQuest installation.
When a site configuration record is removed, it is also deleted. Orphaned
EmailPlusSiteConfig records are not allowed.
- RebuildEMPActions record action
- The RebuildEMPActions record action automatically rebuilds the
EmailPlusAction records using any new algorithms used internally in
the EmailPlus package to build EmailPlusRule expressions. The EmailPlusConfig
record type has the RebuildEMPActions record action that administrators
can use to assist with migrating from earlier versions of the EmailPlus
package.
Attention: If you are upgrading from an earlier
release of the EmailPlus package, such as the one that comes with
ALM 1.1, run this utility once after upgrading. Otherwise, EmailRules
might not work as you expect them to. While viewing the EmailPlusConfig
record, the RebuildEMPActions utility is available
from the Utilities menu in the ClearQuest web and the ClearQuest Eclipse client, and from the Actions menu
in the ClearQuest Windows client.
