Creating Alert Profiles

The alert profile feature lets you associate a list of applications, jobs, and alert types with an alert group. One alert group can have multiple alert profiles associated. By default, Scheduler sends alerts to the groups configured in alert profiles when running job.

You can choose to base a profile on:

• All Jobs. Includes all jobs for all applications (DDNs) in the profile.
• Selected Job Types. Lets you select a list of specific job types (for all DDNs).
• Selected DDNs. Lets you select a list of DDNs (for all job types).
• Selected Job Types in a Particular DDN. Let you choose particular job types for a specific DDN.

For each profile you can send email notification to the associated alert group contacts when a job completes successfully, if a job fails, or both.

This task is a step in Process of Configuring Job Alerts.
