Configuring E-mail alerts
The VLS continuously monitors its performance and routinely checks for disk failures. If you are using an
SMTP server you can enable the messaging option, in which an E-mail is sent whenever the Status of a
volume on the Device Summary page becomes anything other than Normal (for example, changes to
Warning).
NOTE:
Messages regarding capacity levels (Warning and Error) are only sent once.
If your mail server is able to send E-mail messages outside the company, you can also set up messaging
to notify HP Storage Technical Support automatically whenever a critical error occurs.
To configure messaging
1.
In the right pane, scroll down below the Logon Information section to locate the E-mail Notification
section, and enter the following:
• SMTP Server IP Address Using dotted decimal notation, enter the IP address of your incoming
mail server.
• From Address Enter the E-mail address from which the alert will be sent. This address must
use the same domain as the mail server specified for SMTP Server IP Address.
• Address for all messages Enter the E-mail address to which all alerts should be sent (for
example, the E-mail address for the network administrator or the E-mail list address for a
group of backup administrators).
• Address for critical messages only Enter the E-mail address to which critical alerts only
should be sent.
