Hi,

I am using Eevnt Publisher Extension to monitor my processes and it gives me whether the processes are running or not.

I am gettting Events for process status with type Custom but I am not able to generate the mail when process changes its state and goes down.

Can anybody please help me to set mail action for Custom events.

Reagards,

Prathamesh

When you say " I am not able to generate the mail", is because the option is not there, or is the option there, but nothing happens?

Hi Mike,

As I am using EventPublisherExtension for monitoring processes it generates Custom Event for process status no custom metrics are generated for the same.

I want to send mail alert  when the custom event occurs.

Regards,

Prathamesh

OK, this should not be too hard.  First, you want to create an 'Action' that will send an e-mail to the desired list of recipiants.  Take a look here for how to do this:

Then all you need to do is to create a 'Policy' that responds to the Custom Event, and triggers your new e-mail Action that you just created.  Take a look here to see how a Policy works:
