HP StorageWorks P9000 Performance Advisor Software v5.4 Troubleshooting and FAQs Guide (T1789-96336, April 2012)

The first two fields are used to establish a connection with the SMTP server. You must provide the
SMTP server names that can communicate with your web server. Changing the "from" field is
advisable for readability purposes, especially if the SMTP server checks for a valid sender. This
is not to be used to spam people. Change the subject line and the definable message fields as
desired. These areas are especially useful for adding phrases for your particular locale, explaining
what a message means, or receiving the message into a program that parses the main body of
the message and performs some automated processing. Currently, there are no levels of alarm
severity for e-mail messages.
NOTE:
You can also configure the email (SMTP) courier settings for reports from the P9000
Performance Advisor GUI. For more information, see the HP StorageWorks P9000
Performance Advisor Software User Guide .
Discussion
The following line is used to specify where the SMTP server(s) are located.
A server is specified by its name followed by its port. There can be an arbitrary amount of these
pairs to try. They are used in the order they appear here. An even number of space-delimited
tokens are required in this string.
An example is: smtpserver.company.com 25
alternatesmtp.nonprofit.org 25
If you cannot ping it, the code cannot talk to it!
Add more pairs of servers and ports to achieve retries: SMTP_Rpt_Server=
smtpserver.company.com 25
alternatesmtp.nonprofit.org 25
The following entry specifies who the e-mail is said to be coming from:
SMTP_Rpt_Mail_From=[e-mail]
