5.1 Introduction
A management program is almost useless without reporting or
notification function ability. For this reason, the GUI RAID
Manager enables you to configure notifications to occur in
response to various disk array events. For example, if you
configure an e-mail notification, the GUI RAID Manager will
send an e-mail to selected computers on the network if the event
(that just occurred) falls within the selected notification level. If
the notification is detailed enough, the recipient can respond
accordingly.
The notification function makes it possible to manage (or
monitor) the disk array system even when the administrator is
away from the manager station. When properly configured, this
function can notify the administrator of event occurrences in the
managed disk array system instantly even when he or she is at
home, or in other places around the globe.
