I can schedule and run reports. I will schedule one to run monthly. I need to know how to have it emailed out from Aria on a schedule. I am not seeing how to configure that.

Thanks

Hi!

Assume you are using some workflow to create a report. Add the send email script task at the end and pass your report as input parameter 'content'.
There are also some standard email workflows already included.  

var message = new EmailMessage();
message.smtpHost = 'smtp-server';
message.smtpPort = '25';
message.username = "yoursmtpusername"
message.password = "yoursmtppassword"

message.fromName = "vRA Report";
message.fromAddress = "vRA@server";
message.toAddress = "your@email"
message.subject = "vRA Report";
message.addMimePart(content,"text/html; charset=UTF-8");
message.sendMessage()

I am not using a workflow. I am not familiar with them. I am very new to Aria.  I am in the GUI and going to operations-reports and selecting my report and hitting the schedule option.

If you want to send any report generated in vROps follow below steps

    • To have the report emailed, you need to set up email notifications in the vROps admin console.
    Steps:
    • Go to the Admin tab in vRealize Operations.
    • Under System, select Notifications.
    • Here you can configure SMTP settings to set up your email server.
    • In the SMTP settings, input the SMTP server, port, sender's email address, and any authentication details (if required).
  • Enable Email Notification for Reports:
    • After configuring SMTP, you should be able to return to the Report Scheduler settings.
    • When setting up the report schedule, you will have an option to include email notifications.
    • Enter the recipient email addresses in the appropriate field to have the report sent out automatically upon completion of each scheduled run.
