To configure the reminder notifications, you configure the job in the
schedule.xml file.
You have two options to configure the connection to
the Content Store:
- Use the default connection settings configured in the
<configuration>
element.
- Configure a Content Store that is specific to a Scheduler job.
This option is recommended only if you want to run a Scheduler job using a
Content Store other than the one defined in the
<configuration>
element. If the Content Store is the same
you do not need to additionally configure the connection to the Content Store
within a specific Scheduler job. The configuration will fall back to the default
Content Store connection.
To configure the schedule.xml
file:
-
Open the %SchedulerDir%/conf/schedule.xml file.
-
Locate the DailyReminder job as follows.
For
example:
<job useClass="com.ixiasoft.cms.plugins.DailyReminder" enable="false">
<!-- You can add the tag <textml>, <dita.out>, or <smtp/> to override the default value -->
<schedule>
<when>10 2 * * *</when><!-- The job will run at 2:10 am -->
</schedule>
<configuration>
<property name="transform.xsl" value="daily_reminder.xsl"/>
</configuration>
</job>
Note: Although the name of IXIA CCMS Scheduler job is
DailyReminder, the reminder is not sent daily but according to the scheduled
time.
-
Change the value of
enable
to true
.
Note: The Scheduler job will not run if the enable
value is set to false
.
-
Edit the
<when>
element to configure when the job will run.
Use a crontab-like pattern, as shown below:
<when>minute hour day month weekday</when>
Where:
minute
specifies the minutes (0-59) of the hour
that the job will run; a value of * indicates that the job will run
every minute
hour
specifies the hours (0-23, 0=midnight) of the
day that the job will run; a value of * indicates that the job will run
every hour
day
specifies the days (1-31) of the month that
the job will run; a value of * indicates that the job will run every day
month
specifies the months (1-12) of the year that
the job will run; a value of * indicates that the job will run every
month
weekday
specifies the days (0-6, 0 = Sunday) of
the week that the job will run; a value of * indicates that the job will
run every day
For example, to indicate that a job should run at midnight
every day, enter the following:
<when>0 0 * * *</when>
To indicate that a job should run at 6:15 every day, enter
the following:
<when>15 6 * * *</when>
There are other options that you can use. For example, to
indicate that a job should run every 15 minutes, enter the following:
<when>*/15 * * * *</when>

-
To specify a custom email template, edit the
value
attribute for the property
element. Replace the default value of daily_reminder.xsl with the name of the custom
template checked into the Content Store.
For example, if you had a custom email template called
myEmailTemplate.xsl, you would edit the
DailyReminder job as follows:
<job useClass="com.ixiasoft.cms.plugins.DailyReminder" enable="true">
<!-- You can add the tag <textml>, <dita.out>, or <smtp/> to override the default value -->
<schedule>
<when>10 2 * * *</when><!-- The job will run at 2:10 am -->
</schedule>
<configuration>
<property name="transform.xsl" value="myEmailTemplate.xsl"/>
</configuration>
</job>
-
When you are done, save and close the schedule.xml file.
-
If the Scheduler service is running, stop and start it again
to load the job.
For
example:
systemctl restart OutputGenerator
