10.4 Configuring Email Notifications

Roles that Can Perform This Task: Cloud Administrator

Cloud Manager can send e-mail messages to remind task owners about tasks that need to be completed and to notify Business Service Owners of business services that are about to expire or that have expired. For Cloud Manager to do this, you must provide the connection information for an SMTP server to route the messages. You can also customize the schedule for the message notifications.

  1. On the main navigation bar, click Configuration, then click Email Configuration.

  2. Configure the SMTP server connection:

    Host: Specify the IP address or DNS name of the host running the SMTP server.

    Server Port: Specify the port on which the SMTP server listens for incoming messages.

    From Address: Specify the no-reply address you want to use as the sender of the messages.

  3. (Conditional) If the SMTP server requires an authentication user name and password, select this option, then specify the user name and password.

  4. Click OK.
