Defining Other Options for Oracle Alert

You can use the More Options alternative region in the Oracle Alert Options form to define other miscellaneous options for your Oracle Alert installation.

   To define other miscellaneous options:

Business Day System Use this option to select the method for determining business days. The American system starts with Sunday and defines Monday through Friday as business days. The European system starts with Monday and defines Monday through Friday as business days. The Middle Eastern System starts with Monday and defines Monday through Saturday as business days.
Concurrent Manager Name Use this option to specify the name of the concurrent manager.
Concurrent Manager Startup Command Use this option to specify the name of the operating system command that starts the concurrent manager. The default value is startmgr.
Default User Mail Account When a user triggers an event alert, Oracle Alert uses the value entered in the E-Mail field of the Users form (available from the System Administrator responsibility) for that user as the default value for the :MAILID implicit input. Use this option to define the value you want Oracle Alert to use if the E-Mail field is null. You can choose Operating System Login ID, or Application Username for the user who triggered the event.
Diagnostics: Message File Use this option to specify the full path and file name of the diagnostics message file. The suggested file is called alrmsg, located in the bin subdirectory under your Alert directory.
Diagnostics: Operating System Command Use this option to specify the operating system command used in operating system actions in the predefined diagnostic alerts. The default value is ls.
Maximum Summary Message Width Use this option to specify the maximum number of characters your printers can print across the top of a page. Oracle Alert uses this value as the default message width when you define summary message actions using the Action Details window of the Alerts form. Your choices are 80, 132, or 180 characters. Depending on your printer, 80 usually results in a portrait-mode report (short end of paper across top of page), 132 and 180 usually result in a landscape-mode report (long end of paper across top of page).
Send Mail Account Description Use this option to enter the text you want Oracle Alert to display as the sender of alert message actions. When you install Oracle Alert, the default value is Oracle Alert, which you can modify.
