The SHM Monitor configuration file is located in the installation directory. The following is the default

Although the SHM Monitor runs automatically upon installation, you must configure a trap destination in
the configuration file for SNMP to function correctly. A trap destination has the following format:
ip=ipaddress[:port]
For example:
ip=192.168.1.1:1050
• Address — The IP address of the destination
• Port — Port on the target machine the trap receiver listens
Refer to the documentation of the trap listener for the port number it uses. If no port is specified, SHM
Monitor sends traps to the default port– 162.
NOTE: After any changes are made to the SNMP configuration file, you must stop and start the
service for changes to take effect.
Critical events
The SHM Monitor logs all event types. However, SNMP sends only critical events to the trap destination.
The list here outlines the critical events:
• Power Supply Unit (PSU)
– PSU is removed
– DC voltage goes out of range of safe operating values
– DC current goes out of range of safe operating values
• Fan is removed
• Temperature Sensor
– Temperature of enclosure is above/below critical threshold
• Voltage Sensor
– Voltage goes above or below a critical threshold
– AC power failure
– DC power failure
• Drawer
– Drawer is opened
