E-mail notification
The E-mail Notification tab allows you to specify e-mail notification settings. When enabled, the messages logged to the
Windows Event Viewer will be sent as e-mail messages to the addresses specified. The subject of the e-mail will contain an
optional prefix, the server name where the Event Viewer message was logged, the Event Viewer ID, and the severity level
(information, warning, or error). The text of the Event Viewer message will be displayed in the body of the e-mail message.
In order to enable e-mail notification, the server must have Internet Explorer 5.0 or later.
Select or deselect Enable notification to turn this feature on or off. Any notification settings specified are retained when
Enable notification is disabled.
‹ Mail Server (SMTP) —Specify the name of your SMTP mail server.
‹ Log on to SMTP Server —If your SMTP server requires authentication, enable Log on to SMTP Server and specify the
Username and Password to be used for authentication. Your SMTP server must support the LOGIN authentication
method to use this feature. If your server supports a different authentication method or does not support authentication,
you may need to add the Storage Mirroring server as an authorized host for relaying e-mail messages. This option is not
necessary if you are sending exclusively to e-mail addresses that the SMTP server is responsible for.
‹ From Address —Specify the e-mail address that you want to appear in the From field of each Storage Mirroring e-mail
message. The address is limited to 256 characters.
‹ Send To —Specify the e-mail address that each Storage Mirroring e-mail message should be sent to and click Add . The
e-mail address will be inserted into the list of addresses. Each address is limited to 256 characters. You can add up to 256
e-mail addresses. If you want to remove an address from the list, highlight the address and click
Remove . You can also
select multiple addresses to remove by Ctrl-clicking.
‹ Subject Prefix and Add event description to subject —The subject of each e-mail notification will be in the format Subject
Prefix : Server Name : Event Message Severity : Event Message ID : Event Message Description. The first and last
components (Subject Prefix and Event Message Description) are optional. The subject line is limited to 150 characters.
If desired, enter unique text for the Subject Prefix which will be inserted at the front of the subject line for each Storage
Mirroring e-mail message. This will help distinguish Storage Mirroring messages from other messages. This field is
optional.
If desired, enable Add event description to subject to have the description of the Event Viewer message appended to
the end of the subject line. This field is optional.
