The StarTeam Notification Agent monitors server configurations to determine who needs to be notified about work to be performed and about exceptions that occur in the workflow process. It must be installed and set up separately. It is usually installed on the computer that runs the StarTeam Server, but it can be installed anywhere. When the StarTeam Notification Agent is not on the same computer as the StarTeam Server, the two computers’ clocks must be synchronized. The StarTeam Notification Agent’s time cannot be ahead of the StarTeam Server’s time.
When changing the enumerated values for fields used to control notification (for example, when updating the workflow for a project or view), restart the Notification Agent so that it updates its cache.
