3. Select the SNMP - Storage Array Origin Trap tab.
The Configure Alerts dialog appears. The Configured communities table is populated with the
currently configured community names and the Configured SNMP addresses table is populated with
the currently configured trap destinations.
NOTE: If the SNMP - Storage Array Origin Trap tab does not appear, this feature might not be
available on your RAID controller module model.
4. (Optional) If you want to define the SNMP MIB-II variables that are specific to the storage array,
perform this step.
You only need to enter this information once for each storage array. An icon appears next to the
Configure SNMP MIB-II Variables button if any of the variables are currently set. The storage array
returns this information in response to GetRequests.
– The Name field populates the variable sysName.
– The Location field populates the variable sysLocation.
– The Contact field populates the variable sysContact.
a) Click Configure SNMP MIB-II Variables.
b) In the Name text box, the Location text box, and the Contact text box, enter the desired
information.
You can enter only printable ASCII characters. Each text string can contain a maximum of 255
characters.
c) Click OK.
5. In the Trap Destination text field, enter the trap destination, and click Add.
You can enter a host name, an IPv4 address, or an IPv6 address. If you enter a host name, it is
converted into an IP address for display in the Configured SNMP addresses table. A storage array can
have a maximum of 10 trap destinations.
NOTE: This field is disabled if no community names are configured.
6. If you have more than one community name configured, in the Community Name column of the
Configured SNMP addresses table, select a community name from the drop-down list.
7. Do you want to send a trap when an authentication failure occurs on the storage array?
– Yes – Select the check box in the Send Authentication Failure Trap column of the Configured
SNMP addresses table. Selecting the check box sends an authentication failure trap to the trap
destination whenever an SNMP request is rejected because of an unrecognized community
name.
– No – Clear the check box in the Send Authentication Failure Trap column of the Configured
SNMP addresses table.
8. (Optional) To verify that an SNMP alert is configured correctly, you can send a test message. In the
Configured SNMP addresses area, select the SNMP destination that you want to test, and click Test. A
test message is sent to the SNMP address. A dialog appears with the results of the validation and any
errors. The Test button is disabled if you have not selected a community name.
9. Click OK.
An alert icon appears next to each node in the Tree view for which an alert is set.
Battery Settings
A smart battery backup unit (BBU) can perform a learn cycle. The smart BBU module includes the battery,
a battery gas gauge, and a battery charger. The learn cycle calibrates the smart battery gas gauge so that
it provides a measurement of the charge of the battery module. A learn cycle can only start when the
battery is fully charged.
