Configuring the VMware Firewall to Allow Email Notification
You can select an option in 3DM2 to allow email notification of alarms and other events reported by the 3ware RAID controller.
However, in order to receive email notification when using VMware, you will need to configure the VMware firewall to allow outgoing email, as all ports are blocked by default.
To configure the VMware firewall to allow email notification

1 | Login to the server as root.

2 | Configure the firewall to allow outgoing email.
