Dell PowerVault MD 32XX/36XX Series Storage Arrays CLI Guide

The storage array can be set up to send automatic e-mail alert messages to specified email addresses when specific events occur. View the current alert configuration settings using the following command:

SMcli -d -i -s -w -v -S

By default, all alert configuration settings are None.

The following example shows how to set the mail server IP and the sender address configurations for SMTP alerts:

SMcli -m 
                                    123.45.67.892 -F
                                    
                                    MyStorageArrayEvent@MyCompany.com
                                 

or

SMcli -m 
                                    MyCompany.com -F
                                    
                                    MyStorageArrayEvent@MyCompany.com
                                 

An example of a command to set the email alert destination and specify that only event information is to be sent is:

SMcli -a email:
                                    MyCompanySupport@MyCompany.com
                                    123.45.67.89 -I eventOnly
                                 

The following example shows how to set the SNMP trap alert configuration. In this example, the trap destination is 123.45.67.891. The storage array is 123.45.67.892, and the community name is public.

SMcli -a trap:public, 123.45.67.891 123.45.67.892
