Chapter 8: Monitoring Your Storage Space ● 99 Setting Up Email Notifications Email notifications are email messages about events on a system in your storage space that are sent to specified users. Email notifications can help you monitor activity on your entire storage space from any location, and are especially useful in storage spaces that include multiple systems running the Adaptec Storage Manager Agent only. Only the users you specify receive email notifications. (See page 102.) You can specify which types of events generate email messages to which recipients to ensure that errors receive immediate attention from the right people. In the Email Notification Manager, you can add and delete email recipients, and modify the types of email notices they receive, as your requirements change.
