HP StorageWorks P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.1.1 Administrator Guide (web) (TB581-96065, September 2011)

The Device Manager server supports the following SMTP authentication methods: LOGIN or PLAIN.
Make sure that you specify one of these authentication methods in the SMTP server that you use.
Registering recipients of email alerts
Use the Device Manager GUI to set an email destination user so that the following conditions are
satisfied:
• The resource groups that correspond to the target storage systems are assigned.
• Modify is set as the role in Device Manager for the assigned resource group.
• Specify the user's email address by editing the profile.
The same content is sent to all such registered users.
Setting up the Device Manager server to send email alerts
To send alerts by email, the following settings must be specified on the Device Manager server.
To set up the Device Manager server to send email alerts:
1. Specify the Device Manager server properties related to the email notification function.
• server.mail.enabled
• server.mail.from
• server.mail.smtp.host
• server.mail.smtp.port
• server.mail.smtp.auth
• server.mail.errorsTo
• server.eventNotification.mail.to
• server.mail.alert.type
• server.mail.alert.status
NOTE:
• When the SMTP authentication setting is enabled on the Device Manager server and
there are multiple SMTP authentication methods that the SMTP server specifies, the Device
Manager server selects an authentication method (LOGIN or PLAIN in that priority order),
and then sends an email. If LOGIN or PLAIN is not specified, the Device Manager
server will send an email without using the SMTP authentication.
• If SMTP authentication is disabled on the SMTP server, even if the setting is enabled on
the Device Manager server, the Device Manager server will send an email without using
SMTP authentication.
