SNMP

Messaging

Occasionally,

the

library

may

encounter

a

situation

that

you

want

to

know

about,

such

as

an

open

magazine

or

a

fault

that

causes

the

library

to

stop.

The

library

provides

a

standard

TCP/IP

protocol

called

Simple

Network

Management

Protocol

(SNMP)

to

send

alerts

about

conditions

(such

as

need

for

operator

intervention)

over

a

TCP/IP

LAN

network

to

an

SNMP

monitoring

station.

These

alerts

are

called

SNMP

traps.

Using

the

information

supplied

in

each

SNMP

trap,

the

monitoring

station

(together

with

customer-supplied

software)

can

alert

operations

personnel

of

possible

problems

or

operator

interventions

that

occur.

In

summary,

each

trap

provides

the

following

information:

v

Product

Identification

such

as

product

name,

description,

manufacturer,

model

number,

firmware

level,

and

the

URL

that

the

trap

is

designated

for.

v

Product

Status

such

as

the

severity

of

the

trap,

status

(current

and

previous)

and

the

time

the

trap

occurred.

v

Library

State

(physical

device

status)

such

as

identification

and

status

of

devices

that

are

monitored.

In

the

case

of

the

library,

it

would

include

enclosure,

power

supply,

controller,

magazine

status,

drive

count,

cartridge

slot

count,

and

I/O

station

count.

Also

included

would

be

certain

library

statistics,

and

where

appropriate,

the

fault

FSC

(fault

symptom

code)

including

the

severity

and

description

of

that

fault.

v

Drive

Status

such

as

the

identification

of

each

drive

in

the

library,

firmware

level,

serial

number

and

other

address

and

status

information.

v

Trap

Definitions

such

as

library

status

change,

open

magazine,

I/O

accessed,

hard

fault

information,

drive

cleaning

requests,

excessive

retries

and

library

returning

to

normal

operations.
