ILO 4 Not Sending email alerts

[Luke_Y]

Hello.

i have 2 servers with ILO 4 configured as dedicated 

and im trying to setup the email alerts

it is configured to send via anonymous smtp relay but its not working

i have put the same configuration for an MSA that is on the same Vlan and it works.

any ideas?

Try these,

1. Clearing the iLo log

2. Restarting iLo card

in the end used SNMP alerts that are picked up by our RMM.

I know this is an old thread however we still have a server with iLo 4 that has encountered multiple hardware failures over the years and really do need these alerts. We have recently changed ISP and now cannot get SMTP alerts working with port 25 and I have also attempted to create an SMTP relay using additional server to send emails and this is not working either potentially due to the 'Domain' field. Please assist any way to receive alerts quickly without logging in to check? Is SNMP an option someohow to send alerts or is there any solution to sending by SMTP that I may not have attempted? 

Thank you for your assistance, greatly appreciated
