SANtricity 11.8 Commands ( CA08871-194 ~ 196 )

Specify the AutoSupport delivery method

The SMcli -autoSupportConfig command sets up the delivery method for sending AutoSupport messages.

Supported Series

It does not apply to HB2100/HB2200/HB2300 or HB5100/HB5200 storage systems.

Context

This command is an SMcli command, not a script command. You must run this command from a command line. You cannot run this command from the script editor in the storage management software.

You can create two major types of delivery methods for sending AutoSupport messages:

  • SMTP — Use this method when you want to use email as the delivery method for sending AutoSupport messages.

  • HTTP/HTTPS — Use this method when you want to send AutoSupport messages using the HTTP or HTTPS protocols. You need to use HTTPS if you want to use AutoSupport OnDemand or AutoSupport Remote Diagnostics.
