LMS E-Mail Notifications Errors Defination

Dears,
LMS send email notification to the customer (critical) as i customized
with error (authentication failure)
is there any sheet to know or identify what each error means ?
as i googled it and didnt find a solution
Thanks in advance

You can check following document which describes what alerts mean, which are raised by LMS:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/4.2/user/guide/lms_monitor/Events.html#wp1078033
Also, LMS listens to some specific traps sent from device and process them to send some alerts.
For some SNMP traps, LMS either processes them or treats them as pass-through traps. These traps, and how LMS treats them, are described in these topics:
Processed SNMP Traps
When LMS receives certain SNMP traps, it analyzes the data found in the following fields of each SNMP trap message, and changes the property value of the object property if required:
•Enterprise (the sysObjectID of the agent or object)
•Generic Trap Identifier
•Specific Trap Identifier
•Variable-Bindings
•IP address of the SNMP agent
Pass-Through SNMP Unidentified Traps
Pass-through traps are the traps that are generated from devices and are not processed by LMS. The traps appear in the alerts and activities page, if they are generated from the devices that are managed by LMS. LMS cannot process these traps and map them to a topology element such as cards and interfaces. However, LMS can forward the traps irrespective of the device state is either managed or unmanaged. Forwarding these traps is controlled using Monitor > Fault Settings > SNMP Traps > Forwarding.
Pass-through traps are displayed as follows:
•As one of the following events:
–InformAlarm
–MinorAlarm
–MajorAlarm
•With the device type and the device name from which it was generated
Unidentified Traps
LMS may display an event as an Unidentified Trap. Normally an Unidentified Trap is reported when an event occurs on a device that is being discovered by LMS. To get more information on an Unidentified Trap see the corresponding Events page.
For more details check :
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/4.2/user/guide/lms_monitor/TrapFwd.html#wp1007519

  • Error Log and Mail Notification for WMTA Output

    Hi Experts,
    We are using WMTA output for creation of Transfer Orders for Outbound Deliveries. If the TO creation has failed or Partially successful also, WMTA output NOT showing any Log on reason for failure. I see log creation active for Output type, still no log is displayed. Can you please help me to overcome this issue?
    In case if TO is created for Partial Quantity (say TO created for 25 PC against delivery quantity of 40 PC), output status shows green and doesn't display any log. Setup the mail control as given in Note 1756674 - WMTA output shows as processed but no transfer order was created. Still no mail notification is triggered for the error
    Any inputs in this regard are highly appreciated
    Thank you,

    Hi Surya
    Could you please check the setting for "Do not write processing log" as highlighted in the below screen

  • Mail send error in Oracle UCM Test Mail/Notifications

    Hi Everyboby,
    I have configured workflows which need approval. While the documenr is checked in the notification should be fired to the reviewer. But the mail notification is not working.
    Also I have tried to login as sysadmin and tried the Administration -> Actions -> Send test mail link but it pops up the following message/exception.
    Unable to send email. The following recipient(s) '[email protected]' are not valid user or alias names.
    [ Details ]

         at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
    It is noteworthy that a couple of days back the Notifications were working fine. No clue what happened.
    I am pasting the config file portion. Hope this helps.
    #Internet Variables

    Can someone help or provide me a comprehensive document for enabling Notifications.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hey Prashant,
    In UCM you cant send an email directly to a mail address. What you need to do it add user and provide that user with correct email address.
    and at all place in to field you need to mention name of the user, not his email address.
    while testing the email send the mail to sysadmin
    then you would not face any problem.
    cheers,

  • Workitems and Mail Notifications being sent multiple times.

    Hi,
    There are two issues with our WF development:
    1. An approver is receiving a mail notification and WF Decision item TWICE. On analyzing, we found out that the "Requested End" tab of the Decision task had an entry of 2 mins (Work item creation).
    Guidance needed on whether this would resolve the issue or is there a different solution.
    2. On trying to execute a decision for a WF item, an error msg is shown, "You are not a receiver of the work item" and does not allow to proceed with the decision. What could be the issue??
    Regards,
    Vipul.

    Hello,
    What happens is, till your workflow duration is on, you will receive reminder mails.
    So to avoid this, you need to increase all the duration steps to be equal to duration of of the workflow what you define in the Start step.
    Also please explain your decision work flow logic,
    Regards,
    Abhishek

  • ChaRM: mail notification of requester

    Hi!
    I would like to set up an automatic mail notification for requester of the the change request (SDCR).
    Scenario:
    When the Change Manager approves the change request (SDCR) then the requester should get a mail.
    What I have done:
    Creation of action condition "Z_mail_to_requester"
    for action profile "SDCR".
    partner dependent: (00000016 Requester)
    First question:
    When I look into the change request --> Partner I can see that the requester has another number.
    (00000010 Requester)
    Is that a SAP bug?
    Then I defined the schedule condition:
    &Servicevorgang CRM Error.FreeFlag& = X
    and
    &Servicevorgang CRM Error.Userstatus& []  E0004+DCRHEAD*
    My problem: the action will neither scheduled nor executed shen the Change Manager approves and saves the change request.
    Can some one hell me please?!
    Thank you very much indeed!
    Thom

  • E-mail notification in SRM 7.0 for Shopping Cart Workflow

    Hi Gurus
    We have a requirement in SRM 7.0 Process Controlled Workflow.
    1. To send E-mail notification to  approver Outlook / lotus notes in case of SC goes for approval. 
    2. Incase SC is rejected by the approver then the E-mail notification has to be send to the creator of SC.
    How do we configure this E-mail Notification in SRM 7.0 . Also , how do we include Customized E-Mail text while sending these notifications.
    Kindly let me know .
    Thanks,
    Ashish

    Hi Ashish,
    Look out for this path ..
    SPRO-> SRM Server-> cross application->event and event schema for alert management
    in Define events look for Approval_process_doc_rejected and Approval_process_doc_approved
    you can check for event control enter event Approval_process_doc_rejected Or Approval_process_doc_approved
    and event category, event sub category
    also...see Define receipeint of notifications -> here you can configure the receipeint  in case of approval / rejection.

  • OIM 11g - Mail Notification for multiple resources

    User will be provisioned to 5 target system through access policies.So instead of sending 5 different mail notifications to the manager on the Create User task about the account creation, is it possible to send one consolidated mail about the provisioned resources in OIM 11g.

    Hi,
    How abt for the following requirement for sending single mail for multiple resources provisioned.
    We have 3 Access Policies which is defined as follows.
    1) Policy 1 -> R1,R2,R3 Resources
    2) Policy 2 -> R3,R5 Resources
    3) Policy 3 -> R1,R4 Resources

    Hi All,
    I have an implicit enhancement written in a t-code and based on some conditions I am creating event which inturn will trigger the workflow which inturn send e-mail notification via send mail step.
    My question is:
    Which one of the ways is better in terms of performance or overhead to send an e-mail notification. (There are no Approval processes in the workflow.. Just One Step E-mail Notification).
    1) In the Implicit Enhancement, Trigger an event which inturn will trigger the workflow and e-mail is sent via send mail step.
    2) In the Implicit Enhancement, Send the e-mail notification via standard function modules available... such as
       "SO_OBJECT_SEND", "SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1".........
    Would be grateful if someone can post the Advantages and Disadvantages in the above 2 ways of sending e-mail notifications..
    Regards,
    PR.

    Just to throw in some additional factors, consider exception handling:
    An event-based send mail step is decoupled and thus independent of your application. This means your exception handling is separate. It means you do not need to hold up the transaction if there is a failure. All this depends on how important the mail is. You could of course add validation code to ensure the mail address is valid and send it elsewhere if not.
    Regarding performance, consider how often this happens. If it's an infrequent occurrence then I wouldn't worry about performance. Hundreds or thousands a day is a different story.
    So the answer is:
    Workflow for low-volume scenarios (low performance impact) that are important (better error handling in WF),
    Direct mail for high volume and noncritical
    In between these, use whatever you like
    One more thing to perhaps consider the future. What are the chances of the mail being replaced by a work item in furture? Sometimes it's only by observing a process after go live that you can identify the best solution. e.g. you may decide to replace the mail with a "Please go fix this" work item because you need deadline monitoring
