You can configure how and under what conditions the system alerts you when
specific events occur. The system generates events having three severity levels:
Critical – Something related to the system or to a virtual disk has failed and
requires immediate attention.
Warning – Something related to the system or to a virtual disk has a problem.
Correct the problem as soon as possible.
Informational – A problem occurred that the system corrected, or a system
change has been made. These events are purely informational; no action required.
You can:
Choose to be notified of all events, categories of events, or individual events.
Enable or disable different notification methods for different events. Methods
include visual alerts, email alerts, and SNMP traps.
Configure options for each notification method.
To view the current notification settings:
Select Manage > Event Notification > Notification Summary.
Event notification is controlled by three levels of settings. The settings are listed in
order of precedence, meaning that the first settings override subsequent settings.
Notification Enabled – This is the highest level of control. Enable allows the
notification selected by the lower levels. Disable prevents any event notification.
Event Categories Selected – If an event category is selected, and any events of
that type occur, notification occurs.
Individual Events Selected – Individual events can be selected for notification.
All events are logged to the event log whether notification is enabled or not.
See "Viewing the Event Log" on page 171 for more information.
