About activating the email notifications
NetBackup for OpenStack sends email notifications after every backup and restore. The email is sent to the owner of the protection.
The OpenStack administrator must ensure that the following requirements are met to activate the email notifications:
User email is assigned
As the email is sent to the owner of the protection, the OpenStack user who created the protection is required to have an email address associated.
NetBackup for OpenStack mail server is configured
NetBackup for OpenStack needs to know which mail server to use to send the email notifications. The backup administrators can configure mail server on Horizon.
To activate the email notifications
- On the Horizon console, navigate to NBOS Backups > Settings.
- Select or clear the box for Enable Email Alerts.
