We would like to configure our DMS to send email notifications to our users, so we need to add the SMTP settings to our DataMiner. However, we would like to avoid a system restart since it's a Production system.
Is there a way to add SMTP settings without restarting the DMS?
Additionally, if a restart is mandatory, would it be needed in all nodes of the cluster or just one is enough?
Goal is to send email notifications for critical alarms.
Hi Bruno,
To add to Pedro's answer, if you use the SLNetClienTest tool you need to specify the settings in the UpdateSmtpConfigMessage.
You don't need to first manually edit the DataMiner.xml file.
This will apply the settings and update the DataMiner.xml config file with these new settings.
It needs to be sent to each DMA yes. But you don’t need to open a connection to each DMA separately and fill everything in again. You can fill in the DataMiner ID in the first field and quickly send it to all the agents by just changing that value. So should not cost you any significant amount of extra time to configure this on large clusters.
Hello Bruno,
Have you used the Client Test Tool to update the SMTP settings?
You could try to send the UpdateSmtpConfigMessage and see if the update is successful without a restart.
Do you know if this message has to be sent to each DMA?
