RDIST tool notify option

Dear All,

I am using Rdist to replicate some directories from one AIX server (say ukblx157) to another AIX server (say ukapx063).
Rdist tool has a option called notify which sends mail after successfull completion of the replication activity & it also send mail in case of any error.
The problem with it is that the subject line of the alert mail generated is fixed (e.g. Files updated by rdist from ukblx157 to ukapx063)
I want to know is there any way/option to change this?

Regards,
Vishal

SYSTEMD-NOTIFY(1)						  systemd-notify						 SYSTEMD-NOTIFY(1)

NAME
systemd-notify - Notify service manager about start-up completion and other daemon status changes SYNOPSIS
systemd-notify [OPTIONS...] [VARIABLE=VALUE...] DESCRIPTION
systemd-notify may be called by daemon scripts to notify the init system about status changes. It can be used to send arbitrary information, encoded in an environment-block-like list of strings. Most importantly it can be used for start-up completion notification. This is mostly just a wrapper around sd_notify() and makes this functionality available to shell scripts. For details see sd_notify(3). The command line may carry a list of environment variables to send as part of the status update. Note that systemd will refuse reception of status updates from this command unless NotifyAccess=all is set for the service unit this command is called from. OPTIONS
The following options are understood: -h, --help Prints a short help text and exits. --version Prints a short version string and exits. --ready Inform the init system about service start-up completion. This is equivalent to systemd-notify READY=1. For details about the semantics of this option see sd_notify(3). --pid= Inform the init system about the main PID of the daemon. Takes a PID as argument. If the argument is omitted, the PID of the process that invoked systemd-notify is used. This is equivalent to systemd-notify MAINPID=$PID. For details about the semantics of this option see sd_notify(3). --status= Send a free-form status string for the daemon to the init systemd. This option takes the status string as argument. This is equivalent to systemd-notify STATUS=.... For details about the semantics of this option see sd_notify(3). --booted Returns 0 if the system was booted up with systemd, non-zero otherwise. If this option is passed, no message is sent. This option is hence unrelated to the other options. For details about the semantics of this option, see sd_booted(3). --readahead= Controls disk read-ahead operations. The argument must be a string, and either "cancel", "done" or "noreplay". For details about the semantics of this option see sd_readahead(3). EXIT STATUS
On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise. EXAMPLE
Example 1. Start-up Notification and Status Updates A simple shell daemon that sends start-up notifications after having set up its communication channel. During runtime it sends further status updates to the init system: #!/bin/bash mkfifo /tmp/waldo systemd-notify --ready --status="Waiting for data..." while : ; do read a < /tmp/waldo systemd-notify --status="Processing $a" # Do something with $a ... systemd-notify --status="Waiting for data..." done SEE ALSO
