1. Make a copy of the existing $SPECROOT/Notifier/ directory.

2. Rename it to the desired name.

3. Edit the $SPECROOT/Notifier_ABC/.alarmrc file, and change the path of the SET_SCRIPT, CLEAR_SCRIPT, and UPDATE_SCRIPT variables.

4. Using the $SPECROOT/lib/SDPM/partslist/ALARMNOTIFIER.idb file as a template, create the $SPECROOT/lib/SDPM/partslist/NOTIFIER_ABC.idb file and edit it as follow:

# Processd Install Ticket for Notifier_ABC
PARTNAME;NOTIFIER_ABC;
APPNAME;Notifier_ABC;
WORKPATH;$SPECROOT/Notifier_ABC;
LOGNAMEPATH;$WORKPATH/NOTIFIER_ABC.OUT;
#ADMINPRIVS;N;
AUTORESTART;y;
AUTOBOOTSTART;y;
#STATEBASED;N;
NUMPROCS;1; // one per host
RETRYTIMEOUT;600; // 10 minutes
#TICKETUSER;$USER;
RETRYMAX;3;     // 3 retries allowed
STARTPRIORITY;30;
SERVERPROCESS;Y;
#ENV;<var>=<value>;
ARGV;$SPECROOT/Notifier_ABC/AlarmNotifier<CSEXE>; 

5. To launch the NOTIFIER_ABC.idb by the Spectrum Process Daemon, restart the processed as follow:

a) Open a bash shell (bash -login) window as Spectrum Install Owner account

b) Navigate to the $SPECROOT/lib/SDMP/ directory

c) Run: ./processd --restart (Note: This command will not restart the SpectroSERVER application)

NOTE: In Spectrum 10.4.2.1 onwards do NOT run the ./processd.pl script. Run the ./processd --restart or run: systemctl restart processd (in Linux)

6. The AlarmNotifier process located in $SPECROOT/Notifier_ABC/ directory shows up in Windows Task Manager

7. The Notifier_ABC SANM Application should be visible in the Locater Search Results TAB.

If it was not created due to a problem you had to start the NOTIFIER_ABC via Spectrum Process Daemon, you will have to manually launch the AlarmNotifier.exe to create the Notifier_ABC SANM Application.

a) First, stop the NOTIFIER_ABC process via Install Ticket. In a bash shell (bash -login), navigate to the $SPECROOT/bin/ directory and run the following command line:

./cmdC.exe <SS_hostname> 2 NOTIFIER_ABC

b) Manually launch the AlarmNotifier.exe along with "-n" parameter from the $SPEROOT/Notifier_ABC/ directory. See the syntax below:

./AlarmNotifier.exe -n Notifier_ABC

c) Press <Ctrl> + <C> to end AlarmNotifier.exe process. (You may need to press <Ctrl> + <C> multiples times to end successfully)

d) Start the NOTIFIER_ABC process via Install Ticket. In a bash shell (bash -login), navigate to the $SPECROOT/bin/ directory and run the following command line:

./launchinstdbapp.exe <SS_hostname> NOTIFIER_ABC y NOTIFIER_ABC.OUT

e) The Notifier_ABC Application should be displayed in the Locater search.

8. You can then create the SANM Policy and SANM Filters.
