Setting Up SNMP Notifications on Linux For the Linux operating system, the Adaptec Storage Manager SNMP agent is a sub-agent that interfaces with the UCD-SNMP agentx architecture. UCD-SNMP is a third-party package for Linux; for information, documentation, and downloads, see www.net-snmp.org. To configure SNMP support: 1 Install Adaptec Storage Manager (see page 20). 2 Add Adaptec OID information and agentx extension information to the snmp.conf. 3 Delete /var/agentx/master (socket file for agentx). 4 Start the snmpd daemon and agentx. 5 Start aus-snmp daemon. Refer to your Linux documentation for information on configuring UCD-SNMP, agentx, and setting up traps. Notifying All Users About Status and Activity You can set Adaptec Storage Manager to send status alerts about a specified system to all users who are logged into your storage space. You might want to do this if your storage space isn't managed by a dedicated person, or if that particular system is off-site or not connected to a monitor. Event alerts signal everyone working on the storage space that a system requires technical assistance. When you set Adaptec Storage Manager to broadcast event alerts, all logged-in users receive messages about all types of events. In Windows, these alerts appear as pop-up messages; in all other operating systems, these alerts appear as console messages. When enabled, event alerts occur independent of event notifications (see page 106) and email notifications (see page 111). To enable event alerts: 1 In the Enterprise View, select the system you want. 1 On the tool bar, click Configure, point to the system you want, then click General Settings. The Adaptec Storage Manager Agent General Settings window opens for that system. (See the figure on page 131.)
