Symptoms

In OneFS 9.2x & 9.3.x, the TLD of email addresses are limited in the WebUI:
 

  • CELOG alert channels allow up to four characters. Entering a fifth character results in the message "Please enter a correct email address" as seen here:Please enter a correct email address here.
  • Email fields under General settings will allow up to three characters for the TLD. Entering a fourth character results in the message "Must be a valid email address" as seen here: 
  • Must be a valid email address
 
 

Cause

A change to the WebUI introduced in OneFS 9.2.0.0 changed the restrictions on TLDs of email addresses.

Resolution

Engineering is aware of the issue and is developing a fix to be released in a later Roll Up Patch (RUP). 

As a workaround, the full email address can be entered using the CLI. CELOG alerts are sent to the entered email address.

However, once using the CLI to enter the email address, the WebUI can no longer be used for further changes as the error message is still displayed. Continue to use the CLI to make changes that would otherwise be made on the associated web page.
