Notifying Users By SNMP Trap About Status and Activity Note Before attempting the tasks in this section, you should be familiar with SNMP traps concepts and technology. You can use Adaptec Storage Manager to monitor Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps on your iSCSI Storage Appliance, such as disk drive failures and logical device verifications. One system-typically the system where the GUI is installed-can receive SNMP trap notifications. In the SNMP Trap Manager, you can manage the Traps List (only one system can be on the list at a time) and send test traps to the system in the Traps List. Follow the instructions in this section to: • Set up SNMP trap notifications (see page 130). • Send a test trap (see page 131). • Modify a system's information or remove a recipient (see page 131). • Disable SNMP trap notifications (see page 131). Setting Up SNMP Trap Notifications Note Before attempting the tasks in this section, you should be familiar with SNMP traps concepts and technology. To set up SNMP trap notifications: 1 In the Enterprise View, select the Management Service. 2 Click the Configure button, select the Management Service you want, then select SNMP Trap Manager.The SNMP Trap Manager opens on the SNMP Traps tab of a new window. 3 In the toolbar, click Add System. The Add System Window opens. 4 Enter the host name or TCP/IP address for the system. Adaptec recommends accepting the default trap port number, community, and version settings. 5 Select the event levels for which you want to receive SNMP traps. (For more information on event levels, see page 119.) 6 Click Add. The system is added to the SNMP Traps List. (Note that the Add System button is now greyed-out. Only one system can be on the SNMP Traps List at a time.) 7 Close the SNMP Traps window when you're done. Continue by sending a test trap, as described on page 131.
