EpsDestinations File Help

The EpsDestinations file contains X resources used to contact each defined destination.

File Structure and Content

Each destination information record defined is a Perl-style anonymous hash. The exact contents of the hash vary depending upon the requirements of the sending application. The entry "senderCmd" is required in each record and corresponds to the command line necessary to invoke the sending application and pipe its message information on its standard input.

The default EpsDestinations file contains three destination resources that can be copied and revised to create custom destination information records. The following table describes the default destination X resources.
 
X Resource
Description
Appl.Destination This is the default sender command line used when a message has no destination specified. It uses the cat(1M) command to send the message on its standard input to the console.
eNotify.gcsc When the destination is the GCSC, the message is piped to the eNotifyEmail program and sent to the GCSC. eNotifyEmail uses sendmail(1M) and SMTP to send the message to the recipient with a sender ID of Message.senderEmail. Message.senderEmail equates to the value for EpsSiteAdmin.Contact.Primary.Email from the site administrator information record for the application generating the event.
eNotify.console When the destination is the console, the cat -v command is used to send the message on its standard input to the console.
