ViPR SRM alert configuration
Good day,
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
Can somebody help me on how to proceed on this?
Thank you

Hi Zerocollit,
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.

Hi Wanda,
Thanks for the reply. Here's what i have done so far
Already tried the following
- Disabled all alerts under Alert definitions --> EMC M&R Health
- Disabled all alerts under Alert definitions --> EMC VNX Alert definitions
but i'm still getting email alerts on
Device Type: FileServer
Severity: 3
Source: VNXFile-Collector-GenericEvent
where should i look further to enable/disable alerts
Thank you

Hi Zerocollit,
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.

Thanks Isaka,
Will give it a look. Just upgraded our install to 4.0.1, still figuring out the new UI
