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

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.

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.
