Unable to set e-mail notification

JakubSACS — Wed, 06 Dec 2023 08:14:46 GMT

Hi,

We have an MSA 2060 iSCSI. I am trying to set up email notifications but whatevery I try it doesn't send emails.

We are using Office365 and I have a dedicated email set up for this.

In the email settings I have the following:

SMTP Server: smtp.office365.com

Sender email: ouremail@domain.com
Protocol: TLS on SMTP port 587
Password: one I set

I apply those settings and tick the box to send a test email but nothing is coming through. I made sure the inbox is live and I sent a test email from it by manually logging in. I am unsure why the MSA isn't sending anything.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hello JakubSACS,

Please check whether the email notifications are enabled or disabled using CLI.

If it's disabled, please enable it and try.

Hope this helps!

Regards,

Venkat

Hi, Open SMU, click on Maintenance > Support > Event History. Check whether you are getting an event test email failed or succeeded. Latest version MSA controller firmware IN210R004 has a fix for email notifications issue with Office 365. Please upgrade the controller firmware to the latest version if its not updated yet. https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docLocale=en_US&docId=dp00003424en_us

Hi,

The notifications are now working, I haven't changed anything but overnight it seems to have fixed itself. Do you also know how to set up Office 365 alerts for the older style SMU v3? When I try to do it, it's telling me I have to use an IP address.

Thank you

Hi, I believe you are referring to MSA 2050. MSA 2050 supports only IP address entry in SMTP server field. You could setup an SMTP relay as mentioned in Option 3 of below microsoft advisory to configure Office 365 with MSA. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/mail-flow-best-practices/how-to-set-up-a-multifunction-device-or-application-to-send-email-using-microsoft-365-or-office-365
