Receiving Email Alerts About High Availability Status

If you have configured the Primary SonicWall to send email alerts, you receive alert emails when there is a change in the status of the High Availability Pair. For example, when the Secondary SonicWall takes over for the Primary after a failure, an email alert is sent indicating that the Secondary has transitioned from Standby to Active. If the Primary SonicWall subsequently resumes operation after that failure, and Preempt Mode has been enabled, the Primary SonicWall takes over and another email alert is sent to the administrator indicating that the Primary has preempted the Secondary.
