You can configure VSP One File server to send emails to specified recipients to alert them of system events. Setting up email alerts requires configuring SMTP servers to send out emails and setting up email profiles for distribution groups so that email recipients are notified.

  1. Navigate to Configuration > Event Notification Setup > Email Alerts Setup.
  2. In the Email Alerts Setup page, click the edit icon.
  3. Enter the Hostname or IP address of the SMTP server and the email address from which the alert email is sent to the recipient.
    The email address should specify a descriptive name that indicates the VSP One File sever or cluster from which the alert email is sent. If no name is configured, then the VSP One File server applies a default name. An example: administrator@<servername>.com.
  4. Click Save.
After setting up email alerts, add an email profile. For more information, see Adding an email profile.
