Send a JMS Message
This type of task is useful for notifications about result of graph execution. E.g. you can create a graph event listener with this task type to be notified about each failure in a specific sandbox or failure of a particular graph.
JMS messaging requires JMS API (jms.jar) and third-party libraries. All these libraries must be available on application server classpath. Some application servers contain these libraries by default, some do not, thus the libraries must be added explicitly.
