How to send email from HP Unix box

eurouno · #1 (**permalink**) 11-29-2007

Hi everyone, I am new to HP/UX and I would like to know if there is a way to receive system alerts and logs via email on daily bases. Recently our system crashed due to Hard Disk failure, and since then we are checking ELM every day. I would like to automate that process and have UNIX mail send directly to our exchange mailboxes.
Thank you

Have a look in the FAQs.

I looked at the FAQs, but could not find a solution for my question.

you can send mail this way:
echo "ERROR ERROR HD FAILURE" | mail -s "HD FAILURE" me@you.com

Sounds like you want the system mails that goto the unix mail system to come to you instead, no ideal on that.. Make your own alert program to send mail alerts to you is another solution.
