Defining Email Alerts (Smtp) - HP StorageWorks 8000 - NAS User Manual

Defining Email Alerts (SMTP)

The NAS server lets you automatically notify individuals via email if there is a
hardware failure or a critical system alert.
Note The information on this screen is optional. Blank fields do not
affect the functionality of the device. In the event of a hardware
failure or system alert, messages are sent through the network
management tool or they are logged in the system log.
To set up automatic notification:
1 In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Configuration tab.
2 Navigate down the tree to Alerts/Logging, then select SMTP Email Alerts.
3 Select Actions > Edit SMTP Values.
4 Enter the name of the email server in the SMTP Server Name field. The
email server must be an IP address or a fully qualified name (such as
alpha.corp.com). You must specify an email server if you want to define
one or more email recipients.
5 Click Add and enter the email address that should receive alerts. Click OK.
Click Add for any additional email addresses you want to add. You can
also:
— Edit an existing email by selecting it from the table and clicking Edit.
— Delete an entry by selecting it from the table and clicking Delete.
6 Click OK.
7 You can send a test email to make sure your settings are correct by
selecting the recipient from the list and clicking Actions > Send test email
to selected address.
See Appendix B, SNMP Trap Definitions for a list of the traps sent by the NAS
server.
