E-mail notification

The E-mail Notification tab allows you to specify e-mail notification settings. When enabled, the

messages logged to the Windows Event Viewer will be sent as e-mail messages to the addresses

specified. The subject of the e-mail will contain an optional prefix, the server name where the Event

Viewer message was logged, the Event Viewer ID, and the severity level (information, warning, or

error). The text of the Event Viewer message will be displayed in the body of the e-mail message.
In order to enable e-mail notification, the server must have Internet Explorer 5.0 or later.
Select or deselect Enable notification to turn this feature on or off. Any notification settings

specified are retained when Enable notification is disabled.

Mail Server (SMTP)—Specify the name of your SMTP mail server.

Log on to SMTP Server—If your SMTP server requires authentication, enable Log on to SMTP

Server and specify the Username and Password to be used for authentication. Your SMTP

server must support the LOGIN authentication method to use this feature. If your server supports

a different authentication method or does not support authentication, you may need to add the

Storage Mirroring server as an authorized host for relaying e-mail messages. This option is not

necessary if you are sending exclusively to e-mail addresses that the SMTP server is responsible

for.

From Address—Specify the e-mail address that you want to appear in the From field of each

Storage Mirroring e-mail message. The address is limited to 256 characters.

Send To—Specify the e-mail address that each Storage Mirroring e-mail message should be sent

to and click Add. The e-mail address will be inserted into the list of addresses. Each address is

limited to 256 characters. You can add up to 256 e-mail addresses. If you want to remove an

address from the list, highlight the address and click Remove. You can also select multiple

addresses to remove by Ctrl-clicking.

Subject Prefix and Add event description to subject—The subject of each e-mail notification

will be in the format Subject Prefix : Server Name : Event Message Severity : Event Message ID

: Event Message Description. The first and last components (Subject Prefix and Event Message

Description) are optional. The subject line is limited to 150 characters.
If desired, enter unique text for the Subject Prefix which will be inserted at the front of the

subject line for each Storage Mirroring e-mail message. This will help distinguish Storage

Mirroring messages from other messages. This field is optional.
