Chapter 11: Monitoring Your Storage Space ● 103 Using Event Notifications to Monitor Status You can set up Adaptec Storage Manager to broadcast messages (or notifications) to selected remote systems and users when an event, such as the creation of a logical drive or the failure of a disk drive, occurs on the local system. (For more information about event types, see page 101.) You can set up one or both of these types of notifications for any system in your storage space: ● Event notifications-Messages about a system are sent to the Event Viewer of other systems in your storage space. See below. ● Email notifications-Messages about a system are sent by email to specified users. See page 111. Setting up Event Notifications Event notifications are messages about events on one system that are sent to the Event Viewer of another system in your storage space. These messages, called logged notifications, can help you monitor activity on your entire storage space from a single local station, and are especially useful in storage spaces that include multiple systems running the Adaptec Storage Manager agent only. Logged notifications include status information and identify which system (or source) an event occurred on. For instance, in the example shown below, the Event Viewer indicates that a logical drive was added to a system named 'bra2380a' and then verified. Logged notifications are not sent to all systems in your storage space. In the Notification Manager, you can specify which systems will send and receive logged notifications; then, you can add or delete systems as your storage space grows and changes.
