Issue/Introduction

When creating a Trouble Ticket definition in NetMaster, is there any way to use a variable instead of a pre-defined email address?

Environment

Release : 12.2

Product: NetMaster

Resolution

You can define a global variable in NMINIT member, for example a stest variable:
 $glbl stest [email protected]
and then use it in the TT definition:

 

 

Additional Information

Within NMINIT, you can create as many email addresses via global variables as you need.
Then in your Alert definitions, using 'TT' command, you would just point to those global variables.  

In that manner, you are in total control of all of your 'TT' email needs and that can be controlled in one place, the NMINIT procedure. 

Additionally, since these are global variables, they can be changed dynamically at any time.
