Hello all

Can you edit the text in email message that DFM sends out?

Customer wants a simple header, see below how long it is, they only want the first few lines to the first hyper link

Thanks, Emanuel

Hi Emanuel,

     AFAIK the default email messages cant be changed.But you can have your alarm script to generate a email with the messages of your choice, using the environment variables of the alarm.

http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/DFM_win/rel38/html/faq/index.shtml#_13.2

The example in the link is for userquota but it is very much same for any space management events of volume, qtree,aggr and userquota which have environment variables associated with them.

Regards

The work on this is going great, just some tunning and it will be up and running.

This brings customization in question since i get asked a lot of questions that are simply not covered in this product, which is amazing since OM/PM are pretty mature at this point.  As they come up, i will post them here.

Thanks to this forum for all your help, it is working.

Emanuel
