Generate Alerts for Task changes in Project Schedule

Hi,
I would like to generate alerts to all the Project resources when a Task has been revised in Project Schedule. Does MS Project Server 2010 provides this functionality OOTB?
If this not available OOTB, I am planning to write an event handler to generate alerts for Task updates. Would an en event handler for Task level changes impact performance of server?.

Hello,
This is out of the box with the alerts and reminders in 2010, see:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/gg982969(v=office.14).aspx to enable the alerts
and:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/hh767487(v=office.14).aspx - to configure them

Edit custom task fields in Project Schedule

Is it possible to edit custom fields for a task in the project schedule in PWA?
At this moment we are getting a message that we have to use Project Professional to make this change.

Michiel,
Which version of Project Server are you using? What kind of custom field is it?
In short, yes it is posisble to edit custom fields for task via PWA (2010, 2013), as long as it is NOT a formula driven field.

Generating Alerts for OFM discrepancies

Hi Gurus,
Please validate my thinking:
To generate alerts for discrepancies in DFC01 timeseries for OFM process, my assumption is this is done by:
1. Definining OFM Service profile and selecting "Create alerts"
2. Running a PSM job using service DFC_ORDER_FORECAST
Currently this does not generate alerts, yet there are discrepancies for products between customer plan and suppliers plan.
Please advice if I am missing something or in case I am using wrong PSM service.
Thanks,
J.

Hi
you can achieved this functionality by using a UDF for alert generation and also give the details of your clarity tools in the UDF i.e. URL etc.
Thanks

Generate Alert for service startup and stop

Hi Team,
Using SCOM 2012 I'm able to generate alert for service stop. Is it possible to generate alert for the same service if it started.
Thnx

You may create an event alert rule which check the system event with event id 7036, Source ,service control manager, and description, XXX service entered the running state.
For how to create event alert rule with event description, pls. refer to

Turn off sync alerts for dock changes?

I just upgraded to Lion from Snow Leopard. This mostly went well, however, when I make any changes to my dock, I get a "Sync Alert" saying that syncing with the dock with change it by more than 25%. How do I turn this off?
Couple of notes:
- I've never had a Mobile Me account.
- I've never tried to sync the Dock with anything.
- I have more than 20 items in the dock, so changing a single item shouldn't constitute a 25% change anyway.
What process is producing these alerts and how do I make it stop?
On a similar note, when I sync my iPad to iCal using iTunes, I get a similar complaint about 25% change. This is again nuts, since I have appointments dating back to 1999 and the last sync with iCal only added 2 new events.
I tried fishing iSync from Snow Leopard out of a back up and unchecking the alert box for 25% change. But that didn't help.
Any ideas???

I have iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.3, and this is the solution that's working for me so far. However, I had to use the Calendar app on my Mac OS X (Yosemite) - not sure if there is another option for PC. Basically, I added the shared Google calendar to iCloud and told Google not to sync the shared calendar to my iPhone, so the shared calendar now shows up under the iCloud list of calendars and not the Google list (and thus the option to turn off alerts). Note: the shared calendars I'm using are read-only, so I don't know how well this would work if you need to edit events from iPhone. I hope this helps, and if anyone has a better solution, please share!
1. Turn on iCloud calendars on iPhone and Mac.
2. In browser, open the shared Google calendar settings and copy the iCal calendar address URL.
3. In Mac OS X Calendar app, subscribe to the shared Google calendar. File > New Calendar Subscription > paste shared Google calendar URL > click Subscribe
4. Set Location to iCloud. I checked Ignore Alerts because I also didn't want them on my Mac.
5. The shared calendar should now be listed on your iPhone calendars in the iCloud section with the red i.
6. Press the red i and scroll to the bottom and switch off Event Alerts.
7. Remove the shared calendar from the Google list by going to https://www.google.com/calendar/syncselect and unchecking the shared calendars.

Failed to generate Alert for JMS Sender adapter

Hi Folks,
My scenario is JMS to IDOC..
I have configured the Alert rules and the alerts are working fine for the Integration engine errors.. and apart from the alert rule there is one more alert rule configured for capturing the alerts of the adapter engine..
When i provide the queue name as invalid one .. i am able to receive the alerts for the same via alert rule of adapter engine..
When I force to make the channel to error with the invalid headers of RFH2 (with correct queuename) the channel status is showing error ..but interestingly no alert for the same...
Now My question here is how to test the generation of the alerts by forcing the JMS sender channel to error. ?
I already checked the report SXMSALERT_LOGREADER for verification but no luck..
Can some one throw light on this?
Forgot to mention i am using IBM MQ ...
Regards
Rajesh
Edited by: Rajesh on Jul 8, 2010 10:08 AM

Hi Raj,
Thanks for your reply...I am fetching the RFH headers using UDF via Dynamic config only..
Apart from the configurations errors mentioned for alerts(as i am success in this case)...I am testing if there any data related errors like wrong RFH Headers for JMS sender adapter though the channels showing error status in this case ...but its not throwing the alerts...
I want to know whether the alert will be triggered for this or not...if not why ..as it should..
if yes i am unable to get.. what troubleshooting can be done for this...
if you have any other cases (aprt from config issues)for alert trigger...and also apart from RFH headers case..can u pls share..so that i will try the same..
MY only question here is why the adapter not trigering the alerts when wrong RFH Headers are sent along the message..but showing the channel status as red..(is it a bug ?)
Thanks in Advance
Rajesh

SCOM does not generate alert for logical disk space

Hi,
Today we noticed that one of agent in SCOM has drive space below 5% and 500 MB but SCOM did not generate any alert.
I have also verified that there is no override set for this agent's logical disks. I have also verified that discovery is able to discover all disks on server but monitoring is not working as expected.
I have flushed health service on agent but it didn't help.
When I gone through event logs on agent, I found below events:
Log Name:      Operations Manager
Source:        HealthService
Date:          5/26/2014 5:13:05 AM
Event ID:      1103

This is summary only event, please see other events with descriptions of unloaded rule(s)/monitor(s).
Log Name:      Operations Manager

got unloaded and reached the failure limit that prevents automatic reload. Management group "XXXXXXXXX".
Please let me if what we need to do here.
Thanks.

Do this
Change startup type to Window Management Instrumentation (WMI) Service to disabled
Stop the WMI Service; you may need to stop IP Helper Service first or other dependent services before it allows you to stop WMI Service
Rename the repository folder: C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\Repository to Repository.old
Open a CMD Prompt with elevated privileges
CD windows\system32\wbem
for /f %%s in ('dir /b /s *.dll') do regsvr32 /s %%s
Set the WMI Service type back to Automatic and start WMI Service
cd /d c:\ ((go to the root of the c drive, this is important))
for /f %%s in ('dir /s /b *.mof *.mfl') do mofcomp %%s
Reboot the server

Alert for Task Creation & Update

How do i configure the collaboration platform to
send an email alert when a Task is created or updated ????

Hi Christopher,
Which link did you see? Because when i see this link it shows me to configure Mail Parameters for workflow.
Configuring JavaMail Notification
To get JavaMail to work in conjunction with Workflow the following configuration is required. Steps to configure the JavaMail notification using the JavaMail:
       1.      Navigate to System Administration ® System Configuration ® Universal Worklist and Workflow ® Workflow ® Engine
       2.      Change the Notification Service to: com.sap.workflow.es.notificator.JavaMailNotification
       3.      Save.
If using the KMC Mail Notification, the Notification Service should be : com.sap.workflow.es.notificator.KMNotificationServiceProxy
       4.      Now navigate to System Administration ® System Configuration ® Universal Worklist and Workflow ® Workflow ® Mail
       5.      Configure the parameters.

Alert for status changed in Service request CRM

Dear All,
We have a requirement where if the status is changed for a service request, an alert should appear in the context area of the interaction center warning the user of this modification.
I have tried to used the Alerts Configuration in the business role of IC_MANAGER to do this, can i do this only with customizing or do i need any development?
Thanks for all your input.
Best Regards,
João Gaifém

Hi,
As no standard event is raised when changing the status, you could do the following.
Create a Z event (in SPRO, Customer Relationship Management->Interaction Center WebClient->Additional Functions-> Intent-Driven Interactions Define Events in Repository).
Then, you could enhance the view in which the status is managed.
If you want the alert to be shown when selecting the status, create an event handler for the attribute (if not existing already).
In this event handler, call the Z event you just created.
The code should look like :
DATA : lr_event TYPE REF TO cl_crm_ic_event,
lr_event_srv TYPE REF TO if_crm_ic_event_srv.
CREATE OBJECT lr_event.
lr_event->set_name( 'ZSTATUS_CHANGED' ). “Name of event created
lr_event_srv = cl_crm_ic_services=>get_event_srv_instance( ).
lr_event_srv->RAISE( lr_event ).
Then, create your own IDI rule, so that when the Z event is raised, an alert should be displayed.
Hope this can help you.

Query Alert for a change in value of the Quantity field of the sales order

Hi Experts,
A query alert has been set up to alert the warehouse employee when a new sales order is created by a sales employee. Our client wants the warehouse employee alerted when the sales employee edits the quantity field of an already added sales order.
Kindly assist in designing a query to notify of this change in the Quantity field of the sales order.
David

Try this one:
SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.CardCode, T1.ItemCode, T3.Quantity 'Old Qty', T0.Quantity 'New Qty', MAX(T2.LogInstanc) 'Times Changed'
FROM dbo.ORDR T0
INNER JOIN dbo.RDR1 T1 ON T1.DocEntry = T0.DocEntry
INNER JOIN dbo.ADOC T2 ON T2.DocNum = T0.DocNum AND T2.ObjType = '17'
INNER JOIN dbo.ADO1 T3 ON T3.DocEntry = T2.DocEntry AND T3.ItemCode = T1.ItemCode
WHERE T0.DocStatus = 'O' and T0.DocType = 'I' AND T1.Quantity != T3.Quantity
GROUP BY T0.DocNum, T0.CardCode, T1.ItemCode, T1.Quantity, T3.quantity

Hello Prasad,
The reason for the performance trouble is a new feature regarding the user change documents. Since note 874850 and 1015043 you will get a more complete overview about the changes regarding a user.
The disadvantage of that new feature is, that in some customer system usage scenario, the performance is very poor. That's the case, if the central change documents are intensivly used also by other applications and the tables CDPOS, CDHDR, ... contains a very big count of rows. Unfortunatly the user change documents can not be searched by the key columns of the central change docs. - so the bad response time can explained.
What now ... ?
There are some work arounds to get the change documents on faster way.
1st. - You can get the former report output and performance if you
       would use the report RSUSR100 instead of the new RSUSR100N in
       separate mode.
2nd. - If you want to use the new report RSUSR100N directly and only
       want to get the information about the traditional topics
       (content of USH* tables) you should only mark the search areas
       on the tabstrip 'user attributes') to get a better performance.
     - furthermore limit the date range, if possible
3rd. - You should regulary (monthly) archive the user relevant documents
       for PFCG and IDENTITY from the central change documents.
       As per our note 1079207 chapter 3 you can reload that archives
       into more selective tables.
       The selection for change documents will be rather faster over
       reloaded archived documents than the documents in the
       central change documents tables.
Best Regards,
Guilherme de Oliveira.

How to create rule/monitor to generate alert for a reboot of Linux (Redhat) server?

Need to receive an alert when a Linux server reboots. How can this rule/monitor be created?

You can use the "Shell Command" templates to create a UNIX/Linux Shell Command (Alert) rule. See the walkthrough and background here:
http://operatingquadrant.com/2012/01/30/opsmgr-2012-unixlinux-authoring-templates-shell-command/
The following command will identify the seconds the system has been "up" and return OK if it is greater than 15 minutes, and REBOOTED if the seconds up are less than 15 minutes. Your Shell Command rule should alert if the StdOut value contains
REBOOTED.
upseconds=`cat /proc/uptime |awk '{print int ($1 )}'`;if [ $upseconds -lt 900 ];then echo REBOOTED;else echo OK;fi
