Use the Edit >> Alert Destinations pull-down menu option to:
What information is contained in an e-mail or trap message?
For more information about event types, see "Viewing Events with the Event Log" in the Subsystem Management Window help system.
Important:
Example 1 |
Storage Management Station-Level Notifications Select the storage management station node if you want to configure e-mail and/or SNMP trap destinations to receive notifications for EVERY storage subsystem in the management domain. Note: If there are alert destinations also configured for hosts or storage subsystems in the domain, the Enterprise Management software eliminates duplicate storage subsystem notifications delivered to the same destination. In Example 1, selecting the Storage Management Station node and configuring alert destinations will cause those destinations to receive notifications for every storage subsystem in the management domain. |
Example 2 |
Host-Level Notifications Select a host node if you want to configure e-mail and/or SNMP trap destinations to receive notifications for ONLY those storage subsystems that are managed through the selected host. In Example 2, selecting Host Alpha and configuring alert destinations will cause those destinations to receive notifications only for Storage Subsystems Human Resources and Finance. |
Example 3 |
Storage Subsystem-Level Notifications Select a storage subsystem node if you want to configure e-mail and/or SNMP trap destinations to receive notifications for ONLY the selected storage subsystem. Note: If both host-level and storage subsystem-level settings are configured for a storage subsystem, the Enterprise Management software eliminates duplicate storage subsystem notifications delivered to the same destination. In Example 3, selecting Storage Subsystem Finance and configuring alert destinations will cause those destinations to receive notifications only for Storage Subsystem Finance. |
Example 4 |
A Host-Agent Managed Storage Subsystem Attached to Multiple Hosts If the storage subsystem is managed through multiple hosts, you can configure alert destinations for more than one host node. In this case, the Enterprise Management software eliminates duplicate storage subsystem notifications delivered to the same destination, and only one host (host name and IP address) is shown in the notifications. In Example 4, Storage Subsystem Human Resources is managed through both Hosts Alpha and Beta. Alert notifications for Human Resources lists the host name and IP address of either Alpha or Beta, instead of duplicating the notifications and listing both hosts. |
