TESTM Events
The Library Manager generates TESTM events automatically to test the
ability to send SNMP trap messages. They are intended to verify the ability
to send traps to the monitor station.
Using SNMP Features
The following sections describe the Library Manager’s SNMP features.
Selecting SNMP Trap Types:
First, you must select the type of Library Manager trap events that need to be
monitored. To do this, select
Commands
on the Operator menu, and select
SNMP
options
. Then, select the
Select SNMP trap types
submenu option. The Select
SNMP Trap Types window (Figure 231) opens, showing all the Library Manager
trap types. Select the Library Manager trap types that need to be monitored, then
select the OK push button.
Configuring SNMP Trap Destinations:
When you have selected the Library Manager Trap Types, you must configure the
Library Manager to send the SNMP traps to the correct monitoring station. To do
this, select
SNMP Options
in the Commands window, then select the
Change
SNMP trap destinations
option.
You can configure the Library Manager to send SNMP traps to a maximum of five
different trap destinations.
Note: If the 3494 HA1 Option is installed, you must switch active Library
Managers and then configure the newly active Library Manager’s settings to
match those of the previously active Library Manager. Only the active
Library Manager sends trap messages.
The procedure for configuring the SNMP trap destination depends on the OS/2
®
version (2.11 or 4.0). To determine the version of OS/2 you have, select the About
option on the Help menu (see “Using the Help Window” on page 135).
