Im running ViPR SRM 3.7, im trying to lessen the number of email alerts that we are receiving because after enabling Alert notification email notification we got tons of email alerts.
Even if i have already disabled all options under EMC VNX Alert definitions we're still getting a lot of email alerts.
Alert notification definition for sending SNMP traps is still not configured.
Tried also checking Explorer --> Storage --> Storage systems --> < our VNX machine >, but no option for alert under category
If you only need Severity 1 and 2 alerts then you could make a copy of the OOB alert and remove the other two severities from the email alert notification. Disable the original alert so you have it for reference and then enable the newly copied email alert showing only the two Severity levels (1,2) and see if that drops the email notifications you receive.
That Sounds like that maybe from the Alert Consolidation Email Notification, it basically forwards any event that is Severity 1 to 3, try disabling to make sure that its the culprit; if so you can always edit it to remove severity 3 events.
