D-4 SMC Installation and User's Guide
Verify that you can connect to the console and receive a prompt. The prompt can
be from the SCM, SRM, or operating system. If you do not see a prompt,
configure the console as appropriate.
Refer to Section D.4 for the contents of the SCM.PORT file. For any event, look
for the string located at the TEXT: label. These patterns can also be seen in the
pattern field of the discrete event screen. You can trigger an event by typing the
pattern string on the console. Check that the recipients designated during setup
receive the appropriate mail message.
Note that you will receive an error message from the console that received the
string. This is normal, since the string does not contain a valid command.
Method 2 – Verification That Your Mail System Can Forward Mail to You
Correctly
Open a Command window within Windows and type:
C:\cwks\actions\event\mail.pl console event 999 nul: myname@post
(For myname@post use your SMTP address. )
If this does not work, check both your address and the mail sever name (see
“$remote=” in Section D.2.1).
Method 3 – Activation from Within ConsoleWorks
This procedure causes ConsoleWorks to generate actions.
In the left navigation panel of the ConsoleWorks screen select Manage. From
the selection links select Events. Scroll down to the item CONWKS-
EVENTMOD and click it. When the event details are displayed select the link
Automatic Actions. Click the Update Event button at the top of the screen.
This sequence fires off the mail message. It is not necessary to be connected to
any consoles.
