Configuring SNMP Alerts
To add a management console to the list of addresses configured to receive
SNMP alerts:
NOTE:
The Management Information Base (MIB) for the MD Storage Array is
copied to the client directory as part of a Full or Management Station installation
selection. DellMDStorageArray.mib can be compiled on an SNMP Management
Console using the interface provided by the console.
1 Click the Tools tab, then click Set up SNMP Alerts.
2 Enter the Community name.
NOTE:
The community name is an ASCII string that identifies a known set of
management consoles and is set by the network administrator in the
management console. The default community name is public.
3 Enter the Trap destination.
NOTE:
The trap destination is the IP address or the host name of a
management console that runs an SNMP service.
4 Click Add to add the management console to the Configured SNMP
addresses list.
5 Repeat steps 2 through 4 until you have added all management consoles
that should receive SNMP alerts.
6 Click OK.
NOTE:
You must install an SNMP service on every system included in the list of
addresses configured to receive SNMP alerts.
NOTE:
You do not have to install MD Storage Manager on a system in order to
display SNMP alerts. You need only install an appropriate SNMP service and
application (such as the Dell IT Assistant).
