Configuring SNMP consoles to receive traps

The Cluster Management Console includes two SNMP-specific files: cmc.mib and cmc_trapd, which are created in /opt/VRTScmcm/conf/snmp/.

The file cmc.mib is the textual MIB for built-in traps supported by the Cluster Management Console. Load this MIB into your SNMP console to add it to the list of recognized traps.

The file vad_trapd is specific to the HP OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) SNMP console, and includes sample events configured for the built-in SNMP traps supported by the Cluster Management Console. To merge these events with those configured for SNMP traps, type the following on the system running the HP OpenView Network Node Manager:

xnmevents -merge cmc_trapd

When you merge events, the SNMP traps sent by the management server appear in the HP OpenView NNM SNMP console.

For more information on xnmevents, see the HP OpenView documentation.
