PVE not send mail after node fenced.

[Gilberto Ferreira]

Hello guys. Does your Proxmox notify you by email when a node has restarted or fenced?
I did some tests tonight with a client and I didn't receive any email regarding the server stop and the vm fence for the server that "survived".
Sending email is working because I receive the backup notice normally.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,

Yes, the current active CRM master process sends out a mail when fencing started and one when it suceeded to root@localhost, which gets forwarded to the mail address configured for the root account in Proxmox VE user management.

Hi.
I have set an alias in /etc/aliases for root@localhost, to send mail for other two external account.
When using root@localhost in backup jobs por instance, is work perfect.
But when tried to changed the options in the imagem, the web gui doesn't allow me to so!
Why??

Oh! I realize that mail in options is "Email from", i.e. where the cames from.
Where can I change to set the mail address or addresses to send out an alert?

As mentioned, editing the root@pam user account.
