After a user provides valid credentials, DSS uses this information to match an attribute in the LDAP database. After the match is made and the user is identified in the database, the user e-mail address is retrieved by using another database attribute.

Novell

This method integrates with Novell Directory Services. This method is only available if the Novell Client software is installed on the DSS server.

Understanding critical error notifications

Select the Notify administrator of critical error check box on the General tab of the Configuration Utility to receive e-mail messages when critical errors occur. The subject line of these e-mail messages reads: DSS – Critical Error Notification. The e-mail message body reads as follows: “The DSS server [server TCP/IP] incurred a critical error [error message]. This error might require administrative action.”

Table 2-7 Critical error messages on page 26 lists some of the critical-error messages that might be sent.

might be required during peak usage periods.

 

 

Firmware has not been upgraded on device

This message should be seen only when older devices are

 

managed by DSS. Remove the device from the configuration

 

and add it back again.
