Configuring audit backup notifications

To notify users of the status of audit event backup, make them members of a group that you specify in a configuration property.

Procedure

  1. Determine the group whose members you want to receive email notifications of audit data backups.

    You can use an existing group or create a new one on the Settings > User Groups page.

    You can specify only a single group to receive notifications.

  2. Go to the Settings > Configuration page and expand the IBM Marketing Platform | Audit Events | Audit Events Configuration category.
  3. Set the value of the Name of group to receive audit backup notifications property to the name of the group you selected.
  4. Add the users who should receive notifications to the group.
  5. The users who you have added to the group must subscribe to the notifications on the Settings > Users page.

    An administrator can do this for each user, or you can inform the users that they must go to their account, click Notification subscriptions, and subscribe to Audit backup notifications.

Results

Each time the system backs up audit data, an email notification and user interface notification is generated for the members of the group you specified, if they have subscribed to Audit Event notifications.
