Overview
Overview
Rubrik CDM provides many events and notifications, ranging from informational to critical.
Events provide information to users at regular intervals concerning specific operations that have occurred
on Rubrik CDM. Events can appear in the Activity log, Syslog, and SNMP. Rubrik CDM classifies events by
type, for example configuration, hardware, or replication.
Notifications provide information for a subset of events and can be communicated through additional
channesl. For example, notifications can be sent to specific email addresses or to a Syslog server
depending on the Notification Settings. An email recipient list can be configured so that notifications are
sent only for specified event types. The email recipient list can also be configured to send notifications to a
Syslog server.
