Notifying Users By Email About Status And Activity - Adaptec Storage Manager User Manual

Notifying Users by Email About Status and Activity

You can set up Adaptec Storage Manager to send email messages (or notifications) to a selected
email address when an event, such as the creation of a pool or the failure of a disk drive, occurs
on a system. Email notifications can help you monitor activity on your entire storage space
from any location, and are especially useful in storage spaces that include multiple systems
running the Adaptec Storage Manager Agent only.
Only the users you specify receive email notifications. You can specify which types of events
generate email messages (Error, Informational, Warning). You can also specify if you want to
be notified instantly when an event occurs to ensure that urgent issues receive immediate
attention from the right people. Alternatively, you can specify that you want events "coalesced"
and receive only one email message for each event type.
