Configure SMTP Settings

To receive email notifications, follow the steps in this section to configure SMTP settings. Email notifications inform recipients of Dell Server status error states, password updates, availability of Dell Server updates, and client license issues.

It is a best practice to restart the services any time a settings change is made.

To configure SMTP settings, follow these steps:

  1. From the Advanced Configuration menu, select E-mail Notifications.
  2. In the E-mail Notifications screen, to enable email alerts, press the space bar to enter an X in Enable -Email Alerts.
  3. Enter the SMTP Server fully qualified domain name.
  4. Enter the SMTP Port.
  5. Enter the SMTP User
  6. Enter the SMTP Password
  7. In Send Notifications From, enter the email account ID to send email notifications.
  8. In Send Server Status to, enter an email account ID to send server status notifications. Recipients are separated with commas or semicolons.
  9. In Send Password Changes to, enter an email account ID to send password change notifications.
  10. In Send Software Updates to, enter an email account ID to send software update notifications.
  11. In Service alert reminder, to enable reminders, press the space bar to enter an X then set the reminder interval in minutes. A Service alert reminder is triggered when the reminder interval has passed after a notification is sent about a system health issue and the host or service remains in the same state.
  12. In the Summary Report field, to enable reports of notifications, select the desired interval (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly) and then press the space bar to enter an X .
  13. Select OK.
