Managing Your Storage System
Setting Up E-Mail Alerts
The “Alerts” page allows you to set up the storage system to notify up to three people via email if a
problem occurs – for example, if one of the disks fails, or if insufficient space is available for creating
new files or performing a backup.
Figure 23. E-Mail Alerts
To take advantage of this feature, you must have access to an SMTP e-mail server either within your
own network or through an Internet service provider.
Note
The e-mail might not be sent immediately when the problem occurs, but will be sent within an hour
of the event. In addition, if the problem is fixed within an hour of its occurrence – for example, if you
replace the disk that failed – the alert will not be sent.
To set up e-mail alerts:
1. In the navigation bar, click “Advanced”.
2. Specify whether or not the storage system should send e-mail notifications when a problem
occurs by selecting or clearing the “Send e-mail notifications” check box.
If you select this option, you must provide the fully qualified domain name or IP address of
your e-mail server and at least one email address.
If you clear this option, e-mail notifications will not be sent, and all the related fields on this
page appear dimmed. However, if you previously entered information on this page, that
information is retained so that you can easily re-enable e-mail notifications later. If you clear
this option, you do not have to complete the rest of this procedure; simply click “Apply”.
