Dbvisit by default will send an email notification everytime that it is run on the primary and standby server. This is useful during the testing phase so that you get a sense of how Dbvisit is working.

However after the testing phase you only want to be notified by Dbvisit if there is an error or a threshold has been exceeded.
This can be easily done by setting the SUCCESSMAIL=No in the Dbvisit Database Configuration (DDC) file.

For example say your database is called w120n. Your DDC file will be called dbv_w120n.env.
Edit this file with any text editor on the primary server only:

[40 Mail Settings]
MAILCFG_MAIL_CLIENT = dbvisit
SUCCESSMAIL = No
SUCCESSMAIL_DR = No
...

Set both SUCCESSMAIL=No and SUCCESSMAIL_DR=No.
This will ensure Dbvisit will only email when there is an error or an alert on both the primary and standby servers.

Dbvisit will continue to send a heartbeat every day to ensure the emailing functionality is working.

The DDC file contains all the Dbvisit configurational settings. For each setting there is also an explanation into the function of the setting. The DDC should only be updated on the primary server. The next time Dbvisit is run on the primary server, it will automatically copy over the DDC file to the standby server if it detects an update.
