Configuring the SNMP Agent to Send Traps

to Your Console

Once the SNMP Agent is loaded, it will generate SNMP traps for the event codes that

default to ON in the table below (see Appendix A for event code descriptions). These

traps may be received by any management platform that supports SNMP, including HP

OpenView and Novell NMS. When compiled under your management platform, the

HP Remote Assistant MIB tells the SNMP Manager which HP Remote Assistant

device variables are available for querying or setting. For more information on the HP

Remote Assistant MIB, see "Using the SNMP Manager to Query HP Remote

Assistant" in Chapter 5.

NOTE HP Remote Assistant supplies server SNMP agents for Novell NetWare and

Microsoft Windows NT servers only.

HP Remote Assistant MIB

variable

Default Event Codes

hpnsaRAEventConfigVolt ON 109 - 125

hpnsaRAEventConfigTemp ON 211 - 233

hpnsaRAEventConfigAsr ON 501 - 504

hpnsaRAEventConfigBusUsage ON 800

hpnsaRAEventConfigRemAsst ON 401 - 404

hpnsaRAEventConfigRemTrapTest OFF 900

hpnsaRAEventConfigHostSys OFF 5xxx - 9xxx

To enable or disable SNMP traps on particular event codes, set the corresponding MIB

variables in the hpnsaRAEventConfig group shown in the table. If you are using HP

NetServer Assistant 2.1 or above, the traps are represented by intuitive changes in the

color of HP Remote Assistant icons in the server submap. To receive traps for Novell

NetWare servers running NMS, make sure your management console address is listed

in the IP or IPX section of the TRAPTARG.CFG file on the server. Edit the file with

any ASCII text editor, and follow the instructions given in the file comments.
