Issue/Introduction

Upgraded UIM to 20.3.3, and set up a report within Report Scheduler.  Seems to be working, but getting a Success and a Failed on each execution. 

.

Environment

Release : 20.3

Component : UIM - UMP_REPORTSCHEDULER

Cause

- UIM limitation supports only one Operator Console in a clustered environment.

Resolution

- For a multi-node OC environment, the Report Scheduler functionality in UIM 20.3.3 no longer supports the job_refresh_secs configuration property in the /webapps/reportscheduler section of the wasp.cfg.

- Now, it supports the execute_email_action( will be execute_email_actions)  configuration property in the /webapps/reportscheduler section of wasp.cfg. The execute_email_action property lets you prevent the duplicate reports by stopping the execution of the email actions on one or more OC servers.

- On each OC server that you want to stop executing email actions, add the execute_email_actions property with a value of false. Therefore, with this property, you can resolve the issue of users receiving duplicate reports in a multi-node OC environment.

 

Please note

*************

Currently techdocs suggest to update the configuration key "execute_email_action" under webapps/reportscheduler section.

 

The actual key used in the implementation is "execute_email_actions". Please note a trailing s at the end of the key. Please  update key name and verify this scenario once.  

 

wasp config after update: 

   <reportscheduler>
      smtp_host = x.x.x.x
      transport_protocol = smtp
      reloadable = true
      smtp_port = 25
      smtp_auth = false
      cross_context = true
      smtp_user = 
      unpack_war = true
      smtp_starttls = false
      load_on_startup = true
      email_from_address = [email protected]
      path = /reportscheduler
      execute_email_actions = true
   </reportscheduler>
