Configure Alerts
The IBM System Storage DS3500 Manager includes the Event Monitor Service, which
enables the host running this monitor to send out alerts through e-mail (SMTP) or traps
(SNMP). The Event Monitor can be used to alert you of critical events for any of the DS3500
storage subsystems in your environment. For high availability, the event monitor service
should run on two separate host systems that are available 24 hours a day. Both servers
should be capable of out-of-band and in-band management. This ensures proper alerting,
even if one server is down or a connection type has failed.
Note: The DS3500 does not send the e-mail or SNMP trap itself. The management station
(running the event monitor service) sends the notification on behalf of the storage server. If
the management station is down, no alerting will be done.
