Testing the SNMP trap report

This topic describes the procedure to test the SNMP trap report.

Prerequisites

An IP address and community have been added in the Set Up Alert Notifications window.

You must have the Storage Administrator (Initial Configuration) role to perform this task.

For more information, see the Hitachi Command Suite User Guide.

Procedure

1. Navigate to the Alert Notifications window in the maintenance utility.

In Hitachi Command Suite:

1. On the Resources tab, click Storage Systems, and then expand the Storage Systems tree.

2. Expand the target storage system, and then select Maintenance Utility.

3. In the Maintenance Utility window, select Administration > Alert Notifications.

In Device Manager - Storage Navigator:

1. Display the Device Manager - Storage Navigator main window.

2. From the Maintenance Utility menu, select Alert Notifications.

2. Select the SNMP tab.

3. Click Send Test SNMP Trap.

Reports the test SNMP trap to the community registered in the storage system. Reports the events registered in the storage system instead of the events that are set on the SNMP tab. If you want to test the events set on the SNMP tab, click Finish and apply to the storage system, and then report the test SNMP trap.

4. Verify whether the SNMP trap report (reference code 7fffff) is received by the SNMP manager that has the IP address specified for SNMP Trap in the Alert Notifications window.
