Event Management/Alerts

If you want to get alerts from your oVirt Hosts/Engine to your email, here are the steps I followed:

1. ON ENGINE VM
   vi /usr/share/ovirt-engine/services/ovirt-engine-notifier/ovirt-engine-notifier.conf

   MAIL_SERVER=
   MAIL_PORT=
   MAIL_USER=
   MAIL_PASSWORD=
   MAIL_FROM=
   MAIL_REPLY_TO=

   More info can be found here on the options https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/chap-Event_Notifications/

   systemctl daemon-reload

   systemctl enable ovirt-engine-notifier.service

   systemctl restart ovirt-engine-notifier.service

2. Open the oVirt Engine WebUI – Administration – Users
   1. Click on the username link
   2. Click on the Event Notifier (tab)
   3. Click “Manage Events” (button)
   4. Choose your events and add your email address
   5. Click Save

That should do it 😉
