Alert Event Settings
Your ReadyNAS storage system is preconfigured to generate email alert messages when
mandatory and optional system events occur. You can determine which optional system
events generate alerts. NETGEAR recommends that you keep all alerts enabled; however, if
you are aware of a problem, you might disable an alert temporarily.
To manage alert event settings:
1.
Select
Configure > System > Settings
and expand the Alerts section.
2.
Select or clear any event check boxes.
You can clear any non-dimmed events. Dimmed events always trigger email alerts.
3.
Select or clear any check boxes in the Other Alert Settings section, as follows:
•
Select the
Shut down the system when a disk fails or no longer responds
check box
to power off your ReadyNAS system if a disk fails.
•
Select the
Shut down the system when disk temperature exceeds safe level
check box to power off your ReadyNAS system if the disk temperature exceeds the
normal range.
4.
Click the
Apply
button.
System Logs
System logs provide information about the status of various system management tasks,
including a time stamp. Only advanced users should use system logs to diagnose or
troubleshoot system problems. If you call NETGEAR technical support, the representative
might ask you to send your system logs.
In addition to system logs, your ReadyNAS storage system also maintains backup logs. For
