IDLE_INTERVAL 30 The interval, in seconds, between which low-priority tasks will be performed. DAYS_TO_KEEP_HISTORY 0 This variable sets the number of days dispatched events will be preserved in the history table. If this variable is not set, events remain on the history table indefinitely. FAILED_QUERIES_NOTIFICATION_THRESHOLD 30 The number of failed queries after which a notification email is sent. A notification email is sent after the first failure to fetch notifications, and then once every time the number of failures specified by this variable is reached. If you specify a value of 0 or 1 , an email will be sent with each failure. FAILED_QUERIES_NOTIFICATION_RECIPIENTS none The email addresses of the recipients to which notification emails will be sent. Email addresses must be separated by a comma. This entry has been deprecated by the FILTER variable. DAYS_TO_SEND_ON_STARTUP 0 The number of days of old events that will be processed and sent when the notifier starts.

Possible values include 25 for plain SMTP, 465 for SMTP with SSL, and 587 for SMTP with TLS. MAIL_USER none If SSL is enabled to authenticate the user, then this variable must be set. This variable is also used to specify the "from" user address when the MAIL_FROM variable is not set. Some mail servers do not support this functionality. The address is in RFC822 format.

MAIL_REPLY_TO none This variable specifies reply-to addresses in RFC822 format on sent mail, if supported by the mail server. MAIL_SEND_INTERVAL 1 The number of SMTP messages to be sent for each IDLE_INTERVAL MAIL_RETRIES 4 The number of times to attempt to send an email before failing. SNMP_MANAGER none The IP addresses or fully qualified domain names of machines that will act as the SNMP managers. Entries must be separated by a space and can contain a port number. For example, manager1.example.com manager2.example.com:164 SNMP_COMMUNITY public The default SNMP community. SNMP_OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.13.1.1 The default trap object identifiers for alerts. All trap types are sent, appended with event information, to the SNMP manager when this OID is defined. Note that changing the default trap prevents generated traps from complying with the Manager's management information base. ENGINE_INTERVAL_IN_SECONDS 300 The interval, in seconds, between monitoring the machine on which the Manager is installed. The interval is measured from the time the monitoring is complete. ENGINE_MONITOR_RETRIES 3 The number of times the notifier attempts to monitor the status of the machine on which the Manager is installed in a given interval after a failure. ENGINE_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS 30 The time, in seconds, to wait before the notifier attempts to monitor the status of the machine on which the Manager is installed in a given interval after a failure. IS_HTTPS_PROTOCOL false This entry must be set to true if JBoss is being run in secured mode. SSL_PROTOCOL TLS The protocol used by JBoss configuration connector when SSL is enabled. SSL_IGNORE_CERTIFICATE_ERRORS false This value must be set to true if JBoss is running in secure mode and SSL errors is to be ignored.
