Hi,
The CA Product Management team is looking into adding simple built-in email notifications to Workload Automation AE (Autosys) in the future. Since there are always a limited number of resources, a limited amount of time, and a seeminly unlimited number of enhancements on the list :) we may implement this functionality in stages. For example, we could implement email notifications at the individual job or the group of jobs ("application") level first, we could implement notification first for failures only and then enhance it to support other (or all) states or other triggers like time-in-state. As we look at this, I'd welcome any input you might have that could help us set priorities or specific requirements.
Thanks!

Peter,
Good news!! When we were on NSM we used the Console logging. The Console itself was being watched by the servicedesk during day and by night we send the type 2 messages via sms (text to phone) to the right person. When we switched to Autosys 4.5.1 we developed our own SNMP console. So, we have ITM (IBM Tivoli) to guard the autosys log and when a Jobfail comes along it will be triggerd by ITM and an SNMP will be send to our in house developed SNMP tool (from where it will be texted to the right group/person).
So, if you guys could make this easier in any way I'll be more then happy to be the guinea pig.
This are the requirements:
- During the day we have a console where all the errors and warnings come. We still want this, but also the abbility to send e-mail for jobs (identified by us)
- At night the type 2 messages should go to the console and be send to a phone by text.
- We would like a distinction in severity of errors. Now autoys just has the jobfail. No gradation is possible! In NSM this was possible.
Hope my input helps you. If any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Cheers,
Danny
P.S. we're in the middle of a migration towards R11.3, but if this solution comes to light in R11.4 we might go directly to R11.4
