snapshot.conf

The file /var/adm/devops/clearcase/config/snapshot.conf file stores information that ClearCase uses to notify interested parties of VOB database snapshot activity on the local VOB host. Here are the parameters in snapshot.conf and their default values (which are established at installation time):

NOTIFICATION_PROGRAM=/opt/devops/clearcase/bin/notify
NOTIFICATION_LIST=root
CONFIRMATION_ON_SUCCESS=yes

NOTIFICATION_PROGRAM=email-program-pathname

The default electronic mail program specified in the configuration file supplied with ClearCase is /opt/devops/clearcase/bin/notify. (This program is also used if no NOTIFICATION_PROGRAM entry exists.) This is an architecture-specific script that invokes a native mail program.

NOTIFY_LIST=userid[,...]

A comma-separated list of user IDs to notify of VOB snapshot activity on the local VOB host. List default is a single user ID, root.

CONFIRMATION_ON_SUCCESS=yes | no

Specifies whether to notify the NOTIFY_LIST after successful VOB snapshot operations. Default value is yes.
