Note that email notifications cannot use an SSL connection. If the email server
requires SSL, configure email notification to use the local host SMTP server, and
make sure that DNS and SMTP are set up and running on the VTL server node.
The email account password is stored in plain text, so set up an account that the
SMTP server will use exclusively for email notification.
3. Use the Interval controls provided ( D above) to specify the frequency with
which notifications are sent. Then press OK ( E ).
4. When the Set Email Alerts Signature Properties panel appears, enter

with older compressed core files that exceed the maximum (10 is the default).
■ kfsnmem.sh 10 notifies the administrator if the maximum number of memory
pages has not been set or if the number of available pages fall below a predefined
percentage.

below a pre-defined percentage.
■ ipstorsyslogchk.sh notifies the administrator if any instances of a pre-
