attempts. For more information, see Chapter 2, “Opening and using the ASM
Web interface” on page 3.

ASM processor, log in to the ASM processor. For more information, see
“Logging in to the ASM processor in an xSeries 330 server” on page 6.

3. In the navigation pane, click Alerts and scroll down to the Global Remote Alert

Settings section.
