Chapter 6: Alert notifications
Use alert
notifications
to monitor the storage system for changes in
configuration
or
status.
Viewing alert notifications
You can view alert email messages, alert Syslog messages, and alert SNMP trap
messages in the Device Manager - Storage Navigator Alerts tab and the
Alert Detail
window.
Before you begin
You must have the Storage Administrator (View Only) or Storage Administrator (Initial

email are the same as the SIM information that is displayed in the Alert window or
reported through an SNMP trap.

Syslog: Check the messages on the Syslog server to view alert information sent there.
■
SNMP traps: To view SNMP trap information, use the SNMP Manager in Device
