Working with systems in the Notification
Manager
You can use the following features
in the Notification Manager:
You cannot use these actions when
using the ServeRAID Manager as a plug-in application.
Adding a system
Use this action to add a new system
to the notification list. Every new system you add to the list is notified of
all events that occur on this system.
- Click Add system.
- Type the host name or TCP/IP address
of the system you want to add.
- Type the TCP/IP port for the remote
system Startup port number. The
default port is 34571. If you change the system Startup port number in User
preferences on the remote system, type that number here.
- Click Add.
- Continue to add systems, or click
Cancel to close the window.
After you add the system to the notification list, the ServeRAID Manager will attempt to connect to the remote system and
send an initial set of events. The Manager uses these events to update the ServeRAID
Manager interface running on the remote system.
Deleting
a system
Use this action to delete a remote
system from the notification list.
- Click the system you want to delete
from the notification list.
- Click Delete system.
- Click Yes to confirm. The
ServeRAID Manager deletes the system from the notification list.
After deleting the remote system,
the Manager no longer notifies the remote system of events occurring on the
local system.
Modifying
a system
Use this action to modify a remote
system host name, TCP/IP address, or port number.
- Click the system you want to modify
from the notification list.
- Click Modify system. The
Host properties window opens.
- Change the host properties in
the appropriate entry fields.
- Click OK.
Sending
a test event
Use this action to send a test
event to a remote system.
- Click the system you want from
the notification list to which you want to send a test event.
Note: If you click no system or more than one system, this action
is disabled.
- Click Actions -->
Send test event. A window opens to report success or failure. The
test event does not appear in the Last event sent column of the Notification
event list.
Note: If the test fails, verify the following and try the test send
again:
- You typed the correct TCP/IP information.
- The ServeRAID Manager is running on the remote system.
- Click OK.
