change iLO "from" address in mailalert

horst · 4 weeks ago

Hi,

I'm using several ProLiant DL360 Gen9 servers with iLO 4 v. 2.55

I tried to config the AlertMail feature and ran into a problem with the "from" address, the server is sending the mails with. Our mailserver only accepts mails with from addresses in the format "forename.name@ourdomain.com"

Is there a way to set the from address of the iLO manually instead of the "serverFQDN@domain.com"?!

Kind regards

Yes, you can change.

Please refer to the following user guide to set-up email alerts:

Hi @Preethi_C,

thank you for the reply.

On page 125 of the iLO User Guide the AlerMail config is specified. But there are only informations I already know...

quote:

"Sender Domain—The domain name specified in the sender (From) email address. The
sender email address is formed by using the iLO name as the host name, and the sender
domain as the domain name. This string can be up to 63 characters."

But I have to set the from email address to a specific address, independent from the FQDN of the Server-iLO-Interface.
