    To put that into perspective: I have got 32 warnings over the last 3 days, each of which is of course an expected notification, since they all are related to the snapshot tasks, that are assigned on the slave volume.

    The problem is, and I bet that you'll be with me on that: if one gets repeated warnings or errors that aren't really errors, people tend to just skim over them and are risking to miss the one important error, that they really should have paid attention to.

    If I am getting 8 e-mails a day from my DSS hosts, I will start to think that everything is okay, solely based on the number of messages I get. We all know that this shouldn't happen, but if a system runs reliable for a period of time, I guess nobody can help him (or her) making that shortcut - especially if you have to take care of dozens of such systems, which all fire messages at your inbox.

    Cheers,

    I have forwarded your suggestion to our developers. I hope it will implemented soon.

    I don't know if this is possible in your mail software but maybe you can configure some filters for those mails so it will be marked as read or removed and you will be noted only about more important mails for you. It will be a good solution until we will have it implemented in our software.
