8. Confirm that the library displays a message indicating that the test completed successfully,
and that the library sends a test message to the specified e-mail address.
The subject of the test message should be Test email from ESL G3 Series Library.
and the message text should include the library name, version, and serial number, along with
the date and time that the message was sent.
9. To finish, click OK.
Testing current e-mail configuration
To test the current e-mail configuration:
1. Log on as an administrator.
2. Make sure that you are viewing the physical library. From the View menu or in the Managed
Views region of the LMC, click the name of the physical library.
3. Click Setup
→Notifications→Email Configuration.
The SMTP Email Configuration dialog box appears.
4. Select the Enable Email Configuration checkbox and complete the following:
a.
Enter a valid SMTP Server IP address or hostname.
b. Type an e-mail address in both the Recipient box of the Test Current Configuration area.
c. Type an e-mail address in the Sender Address and click Test email.
5. Confirm that the library displays a message indicating that the test completed successfully,
and that the library sends a test message to the specified e-mail address.
The subject of the test message should be Test email from ESL G3 Series Library.
and the message text should include the library name, version, and serial number, along with
the date and time that the message was sent.

Setting up e-mail notifications
Before you set up notifications, you must configure e-mail in the LMC so that the library can send
notifications to the recipients. See
“Configuring e-mail” (page 51) .
Table 6 (page 53) describes the severity levels for which the library can send notifications if e-mail
addresses are set up appropriately to receive them.
Table 6 Severity Levels Assigned to Issues:
Description Severity Level
Indicates that a failure has occurred or a different serious condition
exists within a library subsystem that requires immediate corrective 1 (Failed)
action. In most cases, a hardware component is no longer functioning
at an acceptable level or has failed. Typical library operations are
either impossible or highly unreliable.
Examples of failure situations include a FRU that is not functioning,
a temperature threshold that has been reached that causes unreliable
operations, or a partition that the library has automatically taken
offline.
Indicates that a degraded condition exists within a library subsystem
that impacts system performance or redundancy. Typical library 2 (Degraded)
operations can continue without immediate corrective action, but an
administrator should investigate the condition and correct the problem
soon.
An example of a degraded situation is a redundant power supply
that has failed.
Indicates that a condition exists within a library subsystem that has
little effect on system operations. Typical library operations can 3 (Warning)
continue without immediate corrective action, but you should
