Description of problem:

When ovirt-engine-notifier service is started without SMTP or SNMP configured, following error appears in notifier log:

  2014-07-09 17:00:03,624 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.notifier.Notifier] Failed to initialize
  java.lang.RuntimeException: No transport is enabled, nothing to do
        at org.ovirt.engine.core.notifier.Notifier.main(Notifier.java:63)

"No transport is enabled, nothing to do" isn't very understandable error, so I would change it to:

  "No transport is enabled, please enable at least one of SMTP (using MAIL_SERVER option) or SNMP (using SNMP_MANAGERS option) transports."

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

oVirt 3.5 RC1

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install oVirt and configure using engine-setup
2. Start ovirt-engine-notifier service


Actual results:

"No transport is enabled, nothing to do" error appears in notifier.log

Expected results:

More understandable log should appear in notifier.log
