Configuring the SNMP Agent to Send Traps
to Your Console

Once the SNMP Agent is loaded, it will generate SNMP traps for the event codes that
default to ON in the table below (see Appendix A for event code descriptions). These
traps may be received by any management platform that supports SNMP, including HP
OpenView and Novell NMS. When compiled under your management platform, the
HP Remote Assistant MIB tells the SNMP Manager which HP Remote Assistant
device variables are available for querying or setting. For more information on the HP
Remote Assistant MIB, see "Using the SNMP Manager to Query HP Remote
Assistant" in Chapter 5.

NOTE

HP Remote Assistant supplies server SNMP agents for Novell NetWare and
Microsoft Windows NT servers only.

To enable or disable SNMP traps on particular event codes, set the corresponding MIB
variables in the hpnsaRAEventConfig group shown in the table. If you are using HP
NetServer Assistant 2.1 or above, the traps are represented by intuitive changes in the
color of HP Remote Assistant icons in the server submap. To receive traps for Novell
NetWare servers running NMS, make sure your management console address is listed
in the IP or IPX section of the TRAPTARG.CFG file on the server. Edit the file with
any ASCII text editor, and follow the instructions given in the file comments.
