B-5
SNMP Error 00005
Effect. This is an informational message only. Configuring more than one TRAPDEST 
object that points to the same destination results in duplicate traps being sent to the 
same address.
Recovery. No action is necessary.
SNMP Error 00005
Cause. You provided an invalid wildcard specification as a HOSTADDR attribute 
value. You defined either: 
•
A TRAPDEST object with one or more wildcard values in the HOSTADDR 
specification. Each TRAPDEST must point to a single Internet address.
•
An ENDPOINT or PROFILE object with a partial wildcard specification as the 
HOSTADDR attribute value. Partial wildcard specifications are not supported for 
the ENDPOINT and PROFILE objects.
Effect. The ADD or ALTER command is not executed.
Recovery. Define a separate TRAPDEST object for each Internet address to which 
traps are to be sent. For ENDPOINT and PROFILE objects, define the object with 
either a full wildcard specification (“0.0.0.0”) or a specific Internet address.
SNMP Error 00006 
Cause. You attempted to start an object, but a resource on which the object relies is 
not available. 
Effect. If you were trying to start a TRAPDEST object, the object enters the 
STARTING state. The NonStop agent cannot send traps to the trap destination until the 
underlying resource becomes available. Each time the NonStop agent receives or 
generates a trap, it attempts to access the resources whose services it requires. As 
soon as the resource becomes available, the object enters the STARTED state. 
If you were trying to start an ENDPOINT object, the object enters the STARTING state. 
The NonStop agent cannot receive SNMP messages through that request/response 
connection until the underlying resource becomes available. Using an internal timer, 
the NonStop agent periodically tries to access the resources whose services it 
requires. As soon as the resource becomes available, the ENDPOINT object enters 
the STARTED state.
Recovery. No action is required. However, you might want to investigate the 
unavailability of the resource if the object remains in the STARTING state.
