Setting remote alert attempts
Complete the following steps to set the number of times the Remote Supervisor
Adapter attempts to send an alert:
1. Log in to the Remote Supervisor Adapter. For more information, see
“Accessing the text-based interface through a Telnet connection” on page 65 or
“Accessing the text-based interface through a direct serial connection” on
page 66.
2. For an xSeries 330 server: To set remote alert attempts on the ASM
processor, log in to the ASM processor. For more information, see “Accessing
remote adapters through an ASM interconnect network” on page 67.
3. In the Advanced System Management window, select Settings. The Settings
window opens.
4. In the Settings window, select Login & Alert Profiles. The Login & Alert
Profiles window opens.
5. In the Login & Alert Profiles window, select Remote Alert Settings.
Use these settings to define the number of remote alert attempts and the time
between the attempts.
6. In the Remote Alert Retry Limit field, specify the number of additional times
that the Remote Supervisor Adapter will attempt to forward an alert to a
recipient. All other notification methods are attempted only once.
7. In the Delay Between Retries field, specify the time interval (in minutes) that
the Remote Supervisor Adapter will wait between retries to send an alert.
8. In the Include event log with e-mail alerts? field, select Yes or No.
You can attach detailed information to alert recipients who are configured to
receive e-mail as their notification method. The event log provides a summary
of the most recent events and assists with problem identification and fast
recovery.
Notes:
a. To send the event log as an e-mail attachment, you must select E-mail
over LAN or E-mail over PPP as the notification method for at least one
remote alert recipient.
b. Event logs attached to an e-mail are not forwarded to a Remote Supervisor
Adapter on the ASM interconnect network.
