When a problem occurs on a host server, ALOM sends an alert message to all users who are logged in to ALOM accounts on that host. In addition, you can configure ALOM to send alerts by email to users who are not logged in. When a user receives an alert, that user can connect to the ALOM account for that host server and address the alert condition.
To send email alerts, the network management (Ethernet) port must be enabled. The ALOM software allows you to set up to eight unique email addresses to receive alerts. You can configure each email address to receive its own severity levels of alerts (critical, major, or minor).
