Buried deep down in one of the Install Guides (multiserver, pg 23) I came across a
section that shows you where to change the BAM alert email formats.
Basically there are two files – emailNotification.xslt and fileNotification.xslt both
found in the …\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006\Tracking directory.
If you want to split the function of BAM alerting to different machines (the Provider,
Generator and Distributor within the Notification Services) then there’s a little
step you need to do, to tell the BAM Alerting Event Provider where these new XSLT
files are.
Within the Tracking Dir:
1. Run ProcessBAMNsFiles.vbs – this creates a *.adf file.
2. Edit the *.adf file to point to the new names/location of your modified *.xslt
files.
3. ReRun ProcessBAMNsFiles.vbs so it picks up the modified *.adf
file and makes the changes to the BizTalk Runtime.
4. Restart the BAMAlerts Windows Service.
Handy one – especially being able to modify those emails.
