Alert Service

You can configure an email or a custom service to run when a process stops because of a fault.

The Alert Service is available for processes that run on a Secure Agent or the Cloud Server.

To receive alerts, set the

Suspend processes on uncaught fault

property described in

Server Properties

or enable this option for processes defined in Process Designer.

Alert services are specific to the Cloud Server or the Secure Agent you select on the Application Integration Console. When you use Informatica Cloud, you can configure one Alert Service for the Cloud Server, and one for each Secure Agent to receive alerts.

You can choose one of two options when you configure an Alert Service:

Send Email

. Use this option to send an email to a single specified recipient when the suspended or faulting process state occurs. You must configure an Email Service before you use this option.

Custom Service

. Use this option to deploy a custom process. For example, you can deploy a process that notifies an administrator of a process fault. You can create a custom service in the following ways:

If you use the Process Developer, specify the service name that appears in the PDD file used with the custom service in the

Service

field. This service name appears on the

Service Definitions

page of the Application Integration Console. For details on how to define a custom alert service, see the Process Developer
help.

If you use the Process Designer, create a process and do the following steps:

Set the

Start Event

Event

Next to

Event Source Name

, select

System Events

, and then

Runtime Alert Service

With the Process Designer, you can define more than one process with a start event of Runtime Alert Service. However, you configure one process with the Alert Service.

Select

Enable Alert Service

to use the Alert Service and click

Update

to save your changes.
