How to setup alerts /email through console

Hi James, as of this version, event monitoring is handled via the Vertica Management Console, and direct email notification is not a supported option.  However customers can setup a server to monitor for SNMP traps, and then notify them via an email

Here is a link to the documentation where you can see how events can be configured, including SNMP.
