10.3.2  Disabling Email Notifications

Caution


Events may continue to occur even though you have chosen not to notify anyone.


Email notifications are enabled by default, and perform correctly provided that you entered valid SMTP server and email addresses during installation (or when editing NotifyCA.txt after installation).

Follow these steps to disable email notifications, if desired:

  1. Start the web interface.
  2. Uncheck the "autoStart" checkbox in the SMTP Notification service configuration attributes.
  3. Stop and restart the Director (see Sections 3.8 and 3.7).

The Notification service does not start when the Director restarts, and SEA does not send problem report emails. See Chapter 9 for details about this configuration setting.
