2. In the Alarms table, select the component records for which you want to specify the threshold
level.
You can also filter component records in the Alarms table.
3. To receive an email notification, enter the email address in the text box under Email Destination.
By default, email notifications are sent to administrator@localhost, which is the common destination
email address for all alarm notifications. This email address is valid till:
• You specify a different destination email address on the Email Settings screen. The alarm
notifications generated after this change are redirected to the new destination email address.
For more information, see “Configuring email and SNMP settings” on page 88.
• You specify a different destination email address in the Email Destination box. The new email
address is applicable only for the set of records that you selected in the Alarms table.
To receive a SNMP notification, enter the IP address of the SNMP server that should receive and
process the notifications, in the text box under SNMP Destination.
NOTE:
You can download the SNMP MIB file from the Support screen and use it to view the SNMP
traps generated by P9000 Performance Advisor. Click Support in the title pane, and further
click the Performance Advisor Event MIB link to download the SNMP MIB file from the
Support screen. For more information about the SNMP feature, see the HP StorageWorks
P9000 Performance Advisor Software Installation Guide .
Alternatively, copy the email address and SNMP address from an existing record and apply it
across multiple other records. For more information, see “Applying a template” on page 147.
The changes are updated in the P9000 Performance Advisor database and accordingly reflected in
the Email Destination box and the SNMP Destination box for the selected component records.
