Outbound notifications allow you to configure your email ID, Slack, and Teams channels. After you configure outbound notifications in VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle, you should start receiving notifications in your registered email ID or supported media integrations such as Slack or Microsoft Teams.

You can also view the health status of your VMware Aria Suite products and license details. Outbound notifications are critical or consolidated. You would receive instant alerts for critical notifications. You can choose daily, weekly, or monthly alerts for consolidated notifications. Consolidated notifications provide a list of critical, moderate, and other relevant updates.

Note: Sending outbound notifications by way of a proxy server is supported if you add the SMTP server to the exclusion list for your network proxy. See Configure a network proxy in VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle.

Prerequisites

  • Ensure that SMTP server is configured prior to configuring email outbound notifications.
  • Create incoming web hooks for supported media integrations such as Slack or Microsoft Teams.
