Administrator E-mail Options

The ClusterCATS administration e-mail support feature reports vital statistics about your cluster to designated e-mail accounts in your organization. You can set up the following types of administration e-mail options:

Report e-mail
Lets you know each day how your server clusters are functioning. Daily e-mail reports include the following information:
- Cluster name and each server's name and IP address in the cluster
- Files Total number of files in the Web server's root directory
- Disk space Total amount of disk space used and remaining on the system drive that contains the Web server's root directory
- Log files Size and location of the log files
Support e-mail
Sends an automatic e-mail nightly to Allaire's Technical Support team that contains basic configuration information about your cluster. This information enables Allaire to provide optimal support by understanding your environment when you call a Technical Support representative. Support e-mail contains the following information:
- Cluster name and the number of servers the cluster contains
- Statistics for each server, including failover, redirection, and database statistics
  You can also have one or more people of your choice receive copies of this periodic e-mail.
