Configuring E-Mail on Instant Capacity Systems

Steps to Confirm or Diagnose E-mail Configuration

After you have configured your Instant Capacity system to send e-mail over the internet you can use the following steps to confirm the e-mail configuration or to aid in debugging the configuration:

1.Send an e-mail message from your system to an e-mail address in the same domain (intranet) and confirm receipt of the e-mail message.

2.Send an e-mail message from your system to an e-mail address outside of your domain (to the internet, for example, to a yahoo or hotmail e-mail address) and confirm receipt of the e-mail message.

3.Send an e-mail message from your system to someone at HP (for example, a HP representative in a local account team) and confirm the person at HP received the e-mail message.

4.As root, execute the command:

/usr/sbin/icod_notify <reply_address>

The command in Step 4 sends an e-mail message to HP’s audit application. HP sends a confirmation e-mail message to the reply_address. Receipt of the confirmation e-mail message confirms successful e-mail configuration.
