Sample nnsyreg_file.dat using a file driver  Configuring alertd to run as a service or daemon

Chapter 5: Configuring and Using Alerts

Alert configuration values precedence

OT-XML configuration keys can be located in a alertg configuration file (or a ims54cluster configuration file), placed in the OT nnsyreg.dat configuration file, or entered on a Windows command line or in a UNIX terminal window.The following list identifies the order of precedence for OT-XML configuration values.

  1. Command line.

    Configuration information entered at a Windows command line or in a UNIX terminal window takes precedence over configuration data located in the alertg configuration file, or in the OT configuration file (nnsyreg.dat).

    To specify a configuration key on the command line to overwrite default configuration file values, where the key is within a stanza, use a hyphen followed by the stanza name, followed by a period, followed by the key name, followed by either an equal sign or a space, and finally the key value. For example, the follow configuration value would be entered on one line:

    -EventID=1234, -EventID 1234,
    
         -Transport.AlertsIn.NNOT_TIL_OPEN_TSI=PENDING
    
  2. alertg configuration file (for example, alertg.cfg).

    For ims54cluster, the equivalent file is <clusterName>.alert, where <clusterName> is the name of the cluster.

  3. nnsyreg.dat file in the current working directory.

  4. nnsyreg.dat file in the directory referenced by the environment variable NNSY_ROOT.
