Deleting a local e-mail user

Use the Delete Local E-mail User panel in the SAN Volume Controller Console to delete the local e-mail user who receives event notifications. If this is the last user that is specified to receive event notifications, then deleting this user disables event notifications. Event notification can be restarted by adding another user and restarting the e-mail service.

Attributes

The following attributes are displayed:

User Name
Displays the name of the e-mail user.
E-Mail Address
Displays the e-mail address of the user.
Send Error Notification
Displays whether events with notification type of error are sent to the local user at the specified e-mail address. When an event notification with the type error is received by the specified user, the problem must be fixed immediately. This notification indicates a serious problem with the SAN Volume Controller cluster. For example, the event that is being reported could indicate a loss of redundancy in the system, and it is possible that another failure could result in loss of access to data. The most typical reason this type of notification is sent is because of a hardware failure, but some configuration errors or fabric errors also are included in this notification type.
On
Indicates that the specified user receives events with the notification type of error.
Off
Indicates that the specified user does not receive events with the notification type of error.
Send Warning Notifications
Displays whether events with the notification type of warning are sent to the local user at the specified e-mail address. A warning notification is sent to indicate a problem or unexpected condition with the SAN Volume Controller. Always immediately investigate this type of notification to determine the effect that it might have on your operation and correct the problem if necessary. A warning notification does not require any replacement parts and therefore should not require IBM® Support Center involvement. However, the event being reported might indicate a condition that could be fatal to your operating environment; for example, a critical FlashCopy® operation has failed.
On
Indicates that events with the notification type of warning are received by the specified e-mail user.
Off
Indicates that events with the notification type of warning are not sent.
Send Informational Notifications
Displays whether events with the notification type of informational are sent to the local user at the specified e-mail address. For these types of notifications, no action is necessary to resolve them. This notification indicates an event that was expected has occurred. For example, a FlashCopy mapping event has completed successfully. No remedial action is required when these notification types are sent.
On
Indicates that events with the notification type of warning are received by the specified e-mail user.
Off
Indicates that events with the notification type of warning are not sent.
