Site Settings

Home > CM4D Configuration > Site Manager > Settings

The Settings blade contains the CM4D Site Enterprise options. These options pertain to the system on a Site level that are not specific to the individual CM4D databases.

Enterprise Profile Settings

The performance and health of the entire CM4D Automation Services can be tracked and analyzed with external reports by manually querying the CM4D Site Database. The Site database collects Metrics (information about health and performance) pertaining to the automation system, and Monitors and records information about the current jobs handled by the automated services.


Enable Metrics and Monitoring	This check box turns on Metrics and Monitoring for the entire CM4D system. All databases and users for automation services across the network are monitored and send messages to their respective Site database(s).
Scheduler Queue Count Interval	The Scheduler Queue count interval is how often the Scheduler Job Queue is checked to record which Job Users are using an active Scheduler and the number of jobs each user is running. This count can be done from 15 minutes to 24 Hour intervals. Queue Counts can be observed in CM4D Scheduler Manager or retrieved directly from the M2Count table in the CM4D Site database. CM4D Scheduler Manager has a general monitoring chart that allows you to get an overview of the number of jobs being run for each user in the Scheduler Queue during set periods of time.

EventSmith SMTP Settings

A mail server is required to send the email notifications from EventSmith SMTP. Configure the host server information, and if the mail server requires Authentication enter the user login used to authenticate.


Enable SSL	Check this option if the mail server requires SSL authentication.
From Address	The email address from which the event notifications are sent. If this is left empty, EventSmith will attempt to obtain an address from the Site database based on the user running the service. If neither exist, the service will not start. If you are using Authentication, the 'From Address' should match the account used to log in to the SMTP server or it will likely fail to send any emails.
Port	The port number used to connect to the SMTP mail server. It must match the SMTP port used on your mail server.
SMTP Host	The server address of the SMTP mail server host machine.
Username/Password	The user login that will be used to log in to Authenticate on the mail server. For anonymous relay, leave these fields empty.
