Configuring an alert for OpenStorage events
The administrator can configure OpsCenter to send alerts based on events on OpenStorage devices (storage servers):
The storage server can generate threshold or Volume Almost Full alarms.
Alerts based on the auto-discovery of unprotected NAS file services data.
The alert policy can consider the following information before OpsCenter sends an alert:
Whether the event is considered to be an error, an informational notification, or a warning; or to consider all events regardless of classification. For example, send alerts only when the storage server generates a warning.
Whether the event contains specific words or if it is generated by a specific vendor. For example, send alerts that are generated only from the NetApp device of label xyz.
Whether the event is from a specific master server; or to consider events from all master servers.
When alerts occur, they are sent at a specified severity level to multiple email addresses. When the alerts are cleared, the same email addresses are notified. The severity level for the clearing alerts can also be specified.
See the Veritas OpsCenter Administrator's Guide for information about configuring alerts.
