IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node Introduction and Implementation Guide

Flex System V7000 Storage Node can transmit syslog messages in either expanded or 
concise format. You can use a syslog manager to view the syslog messages that IBM Flex 
System V7000 Storage Node sends. IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node uses the User 
Datagram Protocol (UDP) to transmit the syslog message. You can use the management GUI 
or the IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node command-line interface to configure and modify 
your syslog settings.

The Call Home feature transmits operational and error-related data to you and IBM through a 
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server connection in the form of an event notification 
email. When configured, this function alerts IBM service personnel about hardware failures 
and potentially serious configuration or environmental issues. You can use the call home 
function if you have a maintenance contract with IBM or if the IBM Flex System V7000 
Storage Node is within the warranty period.

To send email, you must configure at least one SMTP server. You can specify as many as five 
additional SMTP servers for backup purposes. The SMTP server must accept the relaying of 
email from the IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node clustered system IP address. You can 
then use the management GUI or the command-line interface to configure the email settings, 
including contact information and email recipients. Set the reply address to a valid email 
address. Send a test email to check that all connections and infrastructure are set up 
correctly. You can disable the Call Home function at any time using the management GUI or 
the command-line interface as well. 

Due to the common design of the software and procedures of the IBM Storwize V7000 and 
the IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node the following information is provided for additional 
references.
