Enable E-Mail Reminders on Sun Java Calendar Server 6.3
Recently, I needed to enable E-Mail reminders for Sun Java Calendar Server 6.3. I thought they were enabled by default, and peering through the documentation available, thought I had confirmed my suspicions. However, being pragmatic with the available documentation, I decided to specifically define the available configuration options.
In the /opt/SUNWics5/config/ics.conf file, I changed the following option from:
!
! Enable binary alarms. Used by csnotifyd and csadmind. (default: yes)
!caldb.serveralarms.binary.enable = “yes”
To the following:
!
! Enable binary alarms. Used by csnotifyd and csadmind. (default: yes)
caldb.serveralarms.binary.enable = “yes”
And restarting the server. Voila! Uncommenting the (supposedly) default value worked! Calendar E-Mail reminders enabled.
I must say, I’m shocked… SHOCKED!!!
Yet again Sun shows the tremendous quality they’ve gained in outsourcing their documentation to Bangalore.
As with most things pertaining to Sun software, it just goes to show that it’s best if you take the documentation with as many grains of salt as you can find.
Nicely done, thek.
