Managing Server Monitoring Alerts
You can configure Dell Management Console to send e-mail alerts on the
status of preselected devices’ health to specific users.
You can set up a schedule to send an e-mail. If a device in a pre-defined
collection has a health status change that matches the health status
monitored by the task, an e-mail is sent to the specified users the next time
the task is scheduled to run.
As a prerequisite to create task and send an alert, an SMTP server must be
added and configured, see Scheduling Health Monitor E-mail Tasks.

Receiving Health Monitor E-mail Alerts
To receive alerts you must configure the SMTP server, create and configure a
Health Monitor E-mail Task, and then schedule the Health Monitor E-mail
task.
After the Health Monitor E-mail task is completed, a report is displayed and
an e-mail is sent to the selected users.
The Health Monitor report lists devices that can be referenced. In the report,
you can click on the device to view the resource manager page.
