Conguring SMTP email server address settings using RACADM
To congure the SMTP email server:
racadm set iDRAC.RemoteHosts.SMTPServerIPAddress <SMTP E-mail Server IP Address>
Conguring WS Eventing
The WS Eventing protocol is used for a client service (subscriber) to register interest (subscription) with a server (event source) for
receiving messages containing the server events (notications or event messages). Clients interested in receiving the WS Eventing
messages can subscribe with iDRAC and receive Lifecycle Controller job related events.
The steps required to congure WS Eventing feature to receive WS Eventing messages for changes related to Lifecycle Controller jobs are
described in the Web service Eventing Support for iDRAC 1.30.30 specication document. In addition to this specication, see the
DSP0226 (DMTF WS Management Specication), Section 10 Notications (Eventing) document for the complete information on the WS
Eventing protocol. The Lifecycle Controller related jobs are described in the DCIM Job Control Prole document.
Conguring Redsh Eventing
The Redsh eventing protocol is used for a client service (subscriber) to register interest (subscription) with a server (event source) for
receiving messages containing the Redsh events (notications or event messages). Clients interested in receiving the Redsh eventing
messages can subscribe with iDRAC and receive Lifecycle Controller job related events.
Monitoring chassis events
On the PowerEdge FX2/FX2s chassis, you can enable the Chassis Management and Monitoring setting in iDRAC to perform chassis
management and monitoring tasks such as monitoring chassis components, conguring alerts, using iDRAC RACADM to pass CMC
RACADM commands, and updating the chassis management rmware. This setting allows you to manage the servers in the chassis even if
the CMC is not on the network. You can set the value to Disabled to forward the chassis events. By default, this setting is set as Enabled.
NOTE
: For this setting to take eect, you must ensure that in CMC, the Chassis Management at Server setting must be set to
Monitor or Manage and Monitor.
When the Chassis Management and Monitoring option is set to Enabled, iDRAC generates and logs chassis events. The events generated
are integrated into the iDRAC event subsystem and alerts are generated similar to the rest of the events.
CMC also forwards the events generated to iDRAC. In case the iDRAC on the server is not functional, CMC queues the rst 16 events and
logs the rest in the CMC log. These 16 events are sent to iDRAC as soon as Chassis monitoring is set to enabled.
In instances where iDRAC detects that a required CMC functionality is absent, a warning message is displayed informing you that certain
features may not be functional without a CMC rmware upgrade.
Monitoring chassis events using the iDRAC web interface
To monitor chassis events using the iDRAC web interface, perform the following steps:
NOTE
: This section appears only for PowerEdge FX2/FX2s chassis and if Chassis Management at Server mode is set to Monitor
or Manage and Monitor in CMC.
1 On the CMC interface, click Chassis Overview > Setup > General.
2 From the Chassis Management at Server Mode drop-down menu, select Manage and Monitor, and click Apply.
3 Launch the iDRAC web interface, click Overview > iDRAC Settings > CMC.
4 Under the Chassis Management at Server section, ensure that Capability from iDRAC drop-down box is set to Enabled.
