Configuring multiple mail servers

wu_weidong — Mon, 14 Jun 2021 03:26:58 GMT

Hi,

I wish to create text notifications for certain alerts, and email notifications for other alerts. Therefore, I would need to configure a SMS server and a SMTP server. However, it seems like only 1 email server is allowed to be configured under the "Mail server settings". Is there a way to configure more than 1 mail server?

Thank you.

Hi @wu_weidong,

no you can configure only one eMail server in Splunk.

As a workaround, you could create a script that calls the SMS server and use it as another alert action.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
