Use the Email Notifications page to define the users who receive emails notifications whenever new patches are detected or Patch policies are rebuilt. The email notification is generated by the Patch Server during its scheduled maintenance period.
In addition to the procedure below, using Email Notification requires the following:
Configuring an SMTP Server
Configuring the Primary Server that will connect to the SMTP Server.
To configure the Primary Server, go to Configuration > Event and Messaging > Notification Servers. Click the browse icon and then select a Primary Server that sends patch management related E-mail notifications. This is an optional field. If the server is not configured, then by default, notifications will be sent from the server on which patch server is running.
IMPORTANT:
This is a new requirement beginning in ZENworks 2020 Update 3 (new installations or upgrades that have migrated Patch Management from earlier 2020 versions).
If you are facing any issues, then see system messages. In ZCC, go to Audit and Messages > System Messages.
To configure Email Notification:
Select Configuration in the ZENworks navigation menu, and go to Configuration > Security > Email Notification.
Type the desired email addresses in the From, To, and CC fields.
Click Apply to save changes.
Click the Notification Servers link in the Email Notification panel to go to that configuration and configure the SMTP Server and the Primary Server connection to it.
More information about the Notification Servers configuration is found in the Help on that page.
