Go to SolutionUnity: Can we send an alert email test from CLI?
Does anyone know how to send a test alert email using CLI?
I can easily send a test alert email from GUI by just clicking [Send Test Email] button. However, I could not find the way in service command/Unisphere CLI...

I found no way to do this thru the cli.
/event/alert/conf -- shows the following options - show and set only - no option for test
[Show]
/event/alert/conf show [ -output { nvp | csv | table [ -wrap ] } ] [ { -brief | -detail | -filter } ]
[Set]
/event/alert/conf set [ -emailFromAddr ] [ -emailToAddrs ] [ -emailSeverity { info | notice | warning
| error | critical } ] [ -snmpSeverity { info | notice | warning | error | critical } ] [ -showAllPoolThresholdAlerts {
yes | no } ]
/sys/support/connecthome test - has a test option but if you have ESRS enabled you will get this message - Cannot enable connect home when ESRS is enabled - if you try to enable connecthome
You might need to ask for a feature request to get it added to the cli

Thank you for checking the commands. I am convinced that we cannot use CLI for email alert (so far).

I can't see a way of doing this from UEMCLI, but it is possible using REST:
POST /api/instances/alertConfig/ /action/testEmailAlert
Instance ID in my case was 0, but you can find that using GET /api/types/alertConfig/instances.
