A.3

Enabling Trap Handling

In addition to the six standard SNMP traps, the Sun MediaCenter server ’s SNMP
agent supports three enterprise-specific traps,

Admission_Failed

,

Missed_Deadline

, and

Disk_Failure

. When the bit pump misses a deadline, the

server fails to admit a title, or a disk failure occurs, the agent sends enterprise-
specific trap 1, 2, or 3, respectively.

Perform the following tasks to enable trap handling in Solstice Domain Manager.

SNM uses the

snmp.traps

file, stored by default in

/var/opt/SUNWconn/snm

, to

establish mapping between trap numbers and descriptive names for those traps. To
map the enterprise-specific trap numbers (1, 2, and 3, as mentioned above) to names,
on the SNM Console machine, perform one of the following two tasks:

If you have not made use of the

snmp.traps

file to this point, save the file to a

file of a different name. Then, from the Sun MediaCenter server, copy the

snmp.traps

file in

/opt/SUNWsms/agents

to

/var/opt/SUNWconn/snm

on

the SNM Console machine.

If you have already modified

snmp.traps

on the Console machine and want to

preserve its contents, append the contents of

snmp.traps

on the Sun

MediaCenter server to its counterpart on the Console machine.

See the Solstice Domain Manager Administration Manual for details on the

snmp.traps

file.

The trap explanations are:

1 Admission_Failed

The Sun MediaCenter server was unable to admit a title that a user requested for
playing. This indicates an exhaustion of resources.
