Storage Management Appliance Software V2.0 User Guide
Disable daily notification between—Use this option to block notification
messages to this user during a given period each day. You define the period
by entering start and end times expressed in 24 hour format. For example, to
block notifications between 7:00 pm and 7:00 am the next morning, enter
19:00 for a start time and 7:00 for the end time.
Suppress multiple notifications—Use this option to reduce the number of
notifications sent when the same device reports events of the same severity
type repeatedly. Define a period of time during which subsequent events of
the same severity are not reported. For example, assume a device first reports
an event of Major severity at 11:00 am and every 15 minutes thereafter. Set
this option to 55 minutes and the user receives the first notification at 11:00
and the second notification at 12:00.
6. Click OK to complete the configuration of user properties for notification and
return to the Users page.
Setting Up Notifications
As a user assigned the Administrator privilege level, there are two ways you can
use the Storage Management Appliance Software to set up event notifications.
■
Select a discovered device or registered application and specify how each
event type should be handled. In this process you can specify both SNMP trap
forwarding and e-mail notification for each supported event type generated by
the device or application.
■
Select a user and specify the event types that generate an e-mail notification
message to that person. Review the supported event types for all available
devices and applications and select those that are to generate e-mail messages
to the selected user.
Setting Up Notification for a Device or Application
Use this procedure to create notification settings for event types generated by a
particular device or application.
1. Click Settings, and then click Notification to display the Notification page
containing a list of supported discovered devices and registered applications
that generate events. Note that this page lists components identified by both IP
and SAN discoveries.
