Create a distribution group

Applies to User Roles:

System Administrator

You can create distribution groups that the Report Exerciser and Event Services applications can use to send reports to pre-defined group of users, or to automatically open change and incident records. HPE Service Manager saves changes that you make to distribution groups in the distgroup table.

To create a distribution group, follow these steps:

Click System Administration > Base System Configuration > Miscellaneous > Distribution.

The Distribution Group File form opens.
In the Group Name field, type the name of the group.

Select the type of distribution group.

Type	Description
Change	Creates a change request and assigns it to the distribution group
Email	Sends an e-mail message to the distribution group
Print	Sends a print job to the printer on behalf of the distribution group
Problem	Creates an incident and assigns it to the distribution group

In the Operators/Contacts field, type the operator name or names of contacts who belong to the distribution group.
Click Add.

Service Manager adds the distribution group record.
