How to configure GMail SMTP on XenServer 6.5 to monitor and alert about your MDADM Array

Ah, the ever present "no repos" in XS. Nice to see you again.

Boy does XS like being an appliance, or what?

Do this...

yum-config-manager --enable base
yum-config-manager --enable extras
yum-config-manager --enable updates
yum-config-manager --enable centosplus

Then install again.

yum-config-manager --enable base

[root@xenserver2 ssmtp]# yum-config-manager --enable base
-bash: yum-config-manager: command not found
[root@xenserver2 ssmtp]#

Does the ssmtp at the end of the prompt make a difference? Shouldn't it just be [root@xenserver2] ?

That ssmtp at the end of the prompt is just showing you your folder location, no big deal.

Does Xen not have yum-config-manager installed these days? What a pain.

Anyone have the commands handy for enabling the repos manually?

Didn't we give up on this a while back? LOL.

No, that we got working.

You sure about that?

We will call it "moderately sure."

You just keep thinking that.

I seem to remember the final words before giving up were
"Why do you need this app installed anyway"
And we found another option.

But I could be wrong.
