EmailPreference setting

[AshV]

Hi,

I'm creating some resource groups using the PowerShell cmdlets but having some trouble with the "EmailPreference" parameter. the documentation says the possible values are "Always, Never, OnError, OnErrororWarning" but whatever value I specify it always sets the value to "Always".

Is anybody else seeing the same issue or know if I need to pass it a specific object type rather than a string?

Thanks

Ash

Below are the email notification related options:

-EnableEmail
-EmailFrom
-EmailTo
-EmailPreference always
-EmailPreference never
-EmailPreference on_error
-EmailPreference ON_ERROR_OR_WARNING
-EnableEmailAttachment
-EmailSubject

Which version of snapcenter server you are using?

Hi pranjith,

I'm using SnapCenter 4.0 P3.

I will give it a go using "-EmailPreference ON_ERROR_OR_WARNING".

If this works, looks like another error in the documentation. The SC 4.0 cmdlet reference (link) only lists the the possible values as " Always, Never, OnError, OnErrorOrWarning." without the underscores, none of the examples use the -emailpreference parameter either.

I will report back after further testing.

Hi pranjith

From my further testing, if i specify "on_error" or "on_error_or_warning" I get the following errors:

Cannot bind parameter 'EmailPreference'. Cannot convert value "on_error_or_warning" to type
"SMCoreContracts.SmEmailNotificationPreference". Error: "Unable to match the identifier name on_error_or_warning to a
valid enumerator name.

Or

Cannot bind parameter 'EmailPreference'. Cannot convert value "on_error" to type
"SMCoreContracts.SmEmailNotificationPreference". Error: "Unable to match the identifier name on_error to a valid
enumerator name.

If i specify "onerror" or "onerrororwarning" (as per documentation) I do not get an error and the Resrouce Group creates but with the email preference set to "Always"
