3.7.5 MAILbus 400 Message Store

This section describes how to use the module-specific sections of the initialization file to configure a scanning module for the MAILbus 400 Message Store.

3.7.5.1 The Software_Version Section

This section specifies the command that the scanning module uses to retrieve the Message Store version string. It has the following format:

[Software_Version]

You must specify the following:

For example:

[Software_Version]
command=ncl show message store '*' version
severity=4
NoNameVersion=V1.0

3.7.5.2 The MessageStore_Names Section

This section specifies the command that the scanning module uses to retrieve the names of separate message stores in a V1.1 or later MAILbus X.400 Message Store system. After the scanning module has run once, it also automatically lists the message stores currently available. It has the following format:

[MessageStore_Names]

You can specify the following:

For example:

[MessageStore_Names]
command=ncl show message store '*' name

3.7.5.3 The Message Store Specifics Section

This section lets you collect generic information (as described in Section 3.3), but specifying a particular Message Store by using names specified in the MessageStore_ Names section. The format of the section that relates to Section 3.3.2 is [MS_File name] , and the format of the section that relates to Section 3.3.3 is [MS_Device name] .

If the scanning module is scanning a Message Store with multiple names, and you use an asterisk in place of the filename, all known message stores are scanned and Mail Monitor automatically updates the configuration file with as many corresponding sections as there are different message store names.

If the scanning module is scanning a Message Store with only a single filename (all versions before V1.1), any _* or /* in a device name is simply removed, and runms is put in place of common in any path name specified.

For general information about the sections added, see Section 3.3.2 and Section 3.3.3.

MS_File name

For example, you might enter this in your configuration file:

[MS_File /var/xms/*/runms/xms_vals_*.dat]
Maximum_512Blocks=10000
Severity=4

Mail Monitor, having run once to determine available names, would automatically update the configuration file with a separate [File name] section for each Message Store.

MS_Device

For example, you might enter this in your configuration file::

[MS_Device /var/xms/*/database]
Minimum_512Blocks=10000
Severity=4

Mail Monitor would automatically update the configuration file with an appropriate [Device name] section or sections.
