Go to Solutionabout ASM/ME Alter settings
Hello all,
I have installed ASM/ME in the windows 2008 r2 server, and enabled email alter settings. But, I find a strange thing. I have not enabled infrmational alter, such as, smart copy succeeded. as show in the follwoing photo.
But, I still can receive a mail about "HIT/ME Alter: Create Smart Copy - Success on host XXX" when the smart copy created successfully. Why?

Most likely if you have done this then yes, this would generate the warning.

Ensure that ALL the hosts that ASM is installed on are configured for this setting. In the middle panel select all hosts and then verify the settings.
You can also View/Change the setting on each host using the ASMCLI:
(You will need to navigate to the directory C:\Program Files\EqualLogic\bin or add the ASM/ME CLI commands folder to your path by editing your Windows PATH environment variable)
To View settings on each host:
Syntax: ASMCLI -alert -category={"category_name" | "category_abbreviation"} |
Example shows the current settings for informational Alerts:
ASMCLI -alert -category=Informational
or
ASMCLI -alert -category=I (this is the abbreviation for informational)
To change ALL the informational alerts to disabled
-disableall={"category_name" | "category_abbreviation"}
Example to disable all informational messages on the host (do this for each host)
ASMCLI –alert –disableall=Informational
This is discussed in more detail in the ASM User Guide.
If you are still having problems, you will need to open a support case.

Thank you, Joe,
I am sure that ALL the hosts with ASM installed on are configured for this setting. - the same settings.
I also checked it with ASMCLI ...
all informational alerts are disabled.

No, Java is not required; in fact the HIT v4.0 no longer installs it. I was checking to see if you did have Java installed and what version (for conflicts, etc.).
I also did some testing on our W2K8 R2 (without SP1 installed, pretty much a basic install), and was NOT able to reproduce your problem. If the Smart Copy Successful is checked, I receive the email, if unchecked I do not.
You can try to re-run the HIT/ASM install, but choose the “repair” option (this will require that the host is rebooted).
If the repair doesn’t fix the problem, gather the following information and open a support case:
Msinfo32, save the file as an .nfo
Systeminfo > host_systeminfo.txt (this redirects the command to a text file)

Thank you, Joe
In my schedule, I create a smart copy that includes multiple database. (no missing component) I checked the user guide and found
is it the reason why I received mail?

There is a specific email setting that you have to uncheck to disable the "Multiple Application Component Warning" you got in the bottom of you alert.
All you need to uncheck is: "Critical: Collection Multiple Writers or Component Error".

Well by the looks of this, you have a torn smart copy or missing component.
This happens when a smart copy is scheduled but you missed a warning message that you may not have read or corrected first. You most likely will not be able to do anything with these copies until the problem is fixed.
When creating the schedule using the Schedule Task Wizard in ASM, you would have seen a Missing Components or Volumes message and needed to correct this first.
You should also be seeing torn copy messages too.
You can delete this schedule, and recreate it to see the warning message. Note that the Schedule Wizard will still let you save the schedule even with warnings.
So, this isn’t a message from the informational alerts, but a message telling you to correct the warning.
Any of the smart copies that were created with this schedule should be removed as well.
The ASM User Guide has more information on Torn Smart copies (with an example) that can explain how it happens and what to do to avoid it.
