Interpreting SNMP Traps

This chapter describes how to understand an SNMP trap. When a physical storage
device, a logical storage unit, or a physical enclosure component changes state,
the HS-Series Agent sends an SNMP trap to every system where the SNMP
option is enabled. The trap is displayed in the Agent's list of client system entries.

An Agent SNMP trap consists of the following information fields:

Source IP address

GENERIC = 6 (6 = ENTERPRISE-SPECIFIC VALUE TO FOLLOW)

SPECIFIC = 0 or 1, where:

— “0” indicates that the storage component transitioned from a bad to a good

state.

— “1” indicates that the storage component transitioned from a good to a bad

state.

Object ID (OID) variable of the offending storage component

OCTET STRING value returning the name of the subsystem containing the
storage component specified by the OID Variable
