Phone Home: Email Alerts - ATTO Technology FastStream SC 5700 Installation And Operation Manual

6.1 Phone Home: Email Alerts

Phone home Email notification allows the FastStream to send an Email message to you, a network administrator
or other users when certain events occur with the FastStream.
Serious error messages are sent immediately, while
messages for less serious errors are sent every 15
minutes.
• Types of errors
• Device/drive errors such as medium error,
aborted command and hard error
• Device/drive transitions from online to offline
• Critical and warning temperature conditions
• Critical and warning voltage conditions
• Power recycle/power failure conditions
• Warning messages
• device down
• medium error
• abort command
• Message severity levels
• Critical: critical event Emails are sent
• Warning: warnings and critical event Emails
are sent
• Informational: information which you may
want to know but which probably does not
require action: only information messages
are sent
• All : warnings, critical events and
informational messages are sent
• None : no Emails are sent
You may send Emails to up to five Email addresses
and designate which conditions prompt each Email
notification.
For example, a recipient with a critical severity level
only receives critical messages and not warning or
informational messages.
When an event occurs that warrants Email notification,
the FastStream sends the message; it cannot respond
to a rejection by a server for an invalid address.
Ensure all Email addresses typed in are valid.
Each Email is time stamped when it is sent as part of
the SMTP header information.
