Will it affect my AIX LPAR security, when i set up email alerts on AIX server.
Hello,
I've set up email alerts on AIX Servers. so that i can get email notifications (via mail relay server) when ever there is abnormal behavior.
for example
1) my script monitors CPU/disk/memory etc... when it reaches high water ark, it will send an email alert.
2) disk usage alerts
3) errpt output to my email
4) syslog events..etc
will it affect my AIX LPAR system security because of this ? i mean mail relay server is not unix based.
note: we do not have any kind of security scanner / anti-virus software on LPARs.
thanks,
