The 3DM 2 Settings page appears when you click 3DM 2 Settings on the menu bar. Use this page to set preferences, including email notification for alarms, passwords, page refresh frequency, whether remote access is permitted, and the incoming port for 3DM 2 to listen for requests.
Send E-mail. This field determines whether e-mail notification is
Enabled or
Disabled. It is a good idea to enable this feature, so that you receive email when your units or drives have problems.
Notify On. Specifies the type of events for which notifications should be sent. A severity of
Information will send e-mails for all alarms, a severity of
Warning will send e-mail for alarms with severity of Warning and Error. A severity of
Error will send e-mail for alarms with severity of Error.
Sender. Enter the email address which will appear in the “From” field.
Recipient. The e-mail address to which notifications should be sent. You can enter multiple addresses, separated by commas (,).
Mail Server (name or IP). If the machine on which you are running 3DM 2 has access to a name server, you may enter the machine name of the mail server in the Server field. Otherwise, use the IP address.
Mail Server Login. If your email server requires authentication, enter the login for the server. If you are uncertain of the login, contact the administrator of the email server.
Mail Server Password. If your email server requires authentication, enter the password for the Mail Server login.
Mail Server Port uses SSL. In 9.5.2, this feature has been added. If your mail server requires or supports encrypted email, set this to
Yes. For more information about 9.5.2 features, see the
9.5.2 Addendum to the 3ware SAS/SATA RAID Software User Guide.
Save E-mail Settings button. Saves the e-mail notification settings.
Send Test Message button. Sends a test message using the saved e-mail settings.
Use the fields in this section to set the passwords for the User and Administrator. When 3DM 2 is first installed, the default password for both is
3ware.
Change Password For. Select the access level for which you are setting the password:
User or
Administrator. Users can only view status information in 3DM 2, while Administrators can make changes and administer the controller and associated drives.
Current Password. Enter the current password.
New Password. Enter the new password.
Confirm New Password. Enter the new password a second time, to be sure you have entered it correctly.
Change Password button. Saves password changes.
Minutes Between Refresh. Displays how frequently pages in 3DM 2 will be refreshed with new data from the controller. To change this setting, select another option from the drop-down. If you prefer 3DM 2 to only refresh when you click
Refresh Page, select
Never.
Allow Remote Access. This field enables or disables the ability for users and administrators to access 3DM 2 from a remote computer.
Command Logging. In 9.5.2, this feature has been added to allow you to enable or disable command logging. For more information about 9.5.2 features, see the
9.5.2 Addendum to the 3ware SAS/SATA RAID Software User Guide.
Listening Port. This field specifies the HTTP: port to be used by 3DM 2 when listening for communications. The default port setting is 888.
If you change this port, make sure the port you specify is not being used. Failure to do so will cause 3DM 2 to stop responding and you will have to restart it by hand.
Change Port button. Saves a new port number.
