ZXTM can be configured to send email alerts to a system administrator when important events occur. These alerts are not currently configurable and this FAQ entry describes under what situations they are sent.
Email alerts are sent in the following situations:
- Whenever a Traffic IP address is raised or lowered for any reason (eg
ZXTM failover, new Traffic IP addresses being added, ZXTM startup /
shutdown)
- When a license key will expire in less than 4 days, or if it has expired
- When an individual health monitor fails or recovers
- When a node fails or recovers
- When an entire pool fails or recovers
- When service protection is invoked (a summary is emailed)
- When an SLM class drops below the configured level, continues below this level or recovers
- When a hardware failure is detected (ZXTM Hardware appliances only)
- When SSL decryption hardware fails (ZXTM 4.2 or later)
Email alerts are sent out in batches every 30 seconds (this can be configured on the System -> Alerting page).
