Adding E-Mail Contacts

Each alert profile can notify one or more e-mail addresses when related events occur. If you want the Avalanche Console to notify you of an alert by e‑mail, add the e-mail address to the Profiled Contacts list for that profile. The entire contact list will receive e‑mails for all alerts generated by that profile.

You must configure the e-mail settings before Avalanche will send e-mails when alerts are generated. For information on configuring e-mail settings, see Configuring E-mail Settings.

A list of e-mail addresses in a comma-delimited .csv file (for example, one exported from Microsoft Outlook) can be imported in order to add multiple e-mail addresses at a time. You can also export the e-mail addresses associated with an alert profile to a .csv file.
