  **Disabling and enabling notifications**
  At any time, you can temporarily or permanently disable email notifications, as shown in 
  Figure 13-54. This is good practice when performing activities in your environment that might 
  generate errors on your IBM Spectrum Virtualize, such as SAN reconfiguration or 
  replacement activities. After the planned activities, remember to re-enable the email 
  notification function. The same results can be achieved by using the CLI**svctask stopmail**
  and**svctask startmail**commands.
