Configuring Alert Notifications
The MD Storage Manager can send an alert for any condition on the storage array that requires your
attention. Alerts can be sent as e-mail messages or as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) trap
messages. You can configure alert notifications either for all the storage arrays or a single storage array.
To configure alert notifications:
1. For all storage arrays, in the EMW:
a) Select the Setup tab.
b) Select Configure Alerts.
c) Select All storage arrays.
d) Click OK.
The Configure Alerts dialog is displayed.
2. For a single storage array:
a) Select the Devices tab.
b) Select the relevant storage array, then select Edit → Configure Alerts.
The Configure Alerts dialog is displayed.
3. Configure e-mail or SNMP alerts.
For more information, see Configuring E-mail Alerts or Configuring SNMP Alerts .

host.

These results occur, depending on your selection:
