Understanding Trap Severity
Traps often contain information about values recorded by probes or sensors. Probes and sensors monitor
critical components for values such as amperage, voltage, and temperature. When an event occurs on
your system, the Server Administrator sends information about one of the following event types to the
system management console:
• Information/Informational—An event that describes the successful operation of a unit, such as a
power supply turning on or a sensor reading returning to normal.
• Warning — An event that is not necessarily significant, but may indicate a possible future problem,
such as crossing a warning threshold.
• Critical/Error — A significant event that indicates actual or imminent loss of data or loss of function,
such as crossing a failure threshold or a hardware failure.
BMC Traps
The BMC monitors the system for critical events by communicating with various sensors on the system
board and by sending alerts and log events when certain parameters exceed their preset thresholds. All of
the traps documented in this section belong to the MIB enterprise identified by OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.3183.1.1.1.
