Configuring event actions

Modify the pxnull.cfg sample script included in the samples and copy it to the \<instance>\script\ directory. If you cannot find the sample file, try re-running setup to modify your installation. Sample files are automatically installed with complete (typical) installations. You can select them in custom installations.

When you configure an event, you enter the program name or target ID in the appropriate field. Bravura Security Fabric looks for the default script with the matching name.

You can write an alternative .cfg file; for example when you have multiple targets of the same type. When you configure an event, you specify the file using the -cfg parameter; for example:

  • pxnull.exe -cfg myfile.cfg

    or

  • MYMAIL -cfg myfile.cfg

Note

By default, the DB COMMIT SUSPEND and other replication events are configured to run the pxnull interface program with the pxnull-replication script, located in the \<instance>\script\ directory, to notify administrators of replication failure. The script is set to use the settings set in the Email configuration page and contact the account in the RECIPIENT EMAIL field.

When you configure an email action for an event using the Configure event (itsm) module, Bravura Security Fabric automatically creates a pxnull-itsm.cfg file in the \<instance>\script\ directory. This file contains the mail server settings you set in Manage the system > Workflow > Email configuration.

If you change the mail server settings, you must update the pxnull-itsm.cfg file by:

  • Manually editing the file

  • Adding or updating any event configuration that includes an email action, to allow Bravura Security Fabric to regenerate the file
