Activate Triggers for an Orchestrator

An administrator with Environment Configuration rights can manage triggers at the Orchestrator level. You activate a selected trigger by changing its status to Inherit from Environment or by changing its status to Enabled and overriding the displayed settings. To view the current settings of a trigger, you must change the status to Enabled and select Edit. If you accept the settings, configure the trigger to Inherit from Environment. If you do not accept the settings because they are incomplete or not appropriate for this Orchestrator, you can configure the fields and leave the status as Enabled.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click the Configuration tab.
  2. Expand the Orchestrators palette.
  3. Right-click the selected Orchestrator and select Lock.
  4. Click the Triggers tab.

    If triggers have not been configured at the Orchestrator level, they are in Disabled status.

  5. Right-click the trigger you want to examine and click Edit.

    The fields display with the values that you can use as is or change.

  6. If the trigger is fully configured with values you want the selected Orchestrator to use, select Inherit from Environment from the Enable/Disable drop-down list, and click Close.
  7. If the trigger is not fully configured or you want to specify difference values for the selected Orchestrator, do the following:
    1. Select Enabled from the Enable/Disable drop-down list.
    2. For field descriptions and other pertinent information about each of the triggers, see Administer Triggers.
    3. If the selected trigger is the Mail trigger and the Orchestrator is not the Domain Orchestrator, click Browse and select the default process file.

      The Default Trigger Process field is populated with the correct path for this Orchestrator.

    4. Click Close
  8. Click Save.
  9. Right-click the Orchestrator you locked and click Unlock.
