Setting Up SNMP Traps for Linux Operating
Environment Servers
For systems running the Linux
operating environment, you can generate SNMP version 1 traps through an
interface to an SNMP trap daemon called sstrapd. By default, this
daemon does not start automatically during the boot process. The following
steps describe how to enable trap processing.
- Create the file /var/opt/dothill/ssagent/sstrapd.conf
using any standard text editor.
This file must be created with a list of either system names or IP addresses
(one per line) for the SNMP manager consoles. The file can contain blank
lines and comment lines.
- Edit the file /etc/init.d/ssagent
and remove the comment marks from the SNMP-related start section.
These lines are marked by an initial double hash mark (##).
- Save the file after these
edits.
The sstrapd daemon starts at the next boot or can be started
immediately by running the following command
# /etc/init.d/ssagent uptrap
This starts the sstrapd daemon
as well as the other two SANscape daemons if they are not currently running.
Only one instance of each daemon is running at this point, whether or
not any daemons were previously running.
