Notifying Users By SNMP Trap About Status and Activity
Note Before attempting the tasks in this section, you should be familiar with SNMP
traps concepts and technology.
You can use Adaptec Storage Manager to monitor Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP) traps on your iSCSI Storage Appliance, such as disk drive failures
and logical device verifications. One system—typically the system where the GUI is
installed—
can receive SNMP trap notifications.
In the SNMP Trap Manager, you can manage the Traps List (only one system can be
on the list at a time) and send test traps to the system in the Traps List.
Follow the instructions in this section to:
• Set up SNMP trap notifications (see page 130).
• Send a test trap (see page 131).
• Modify a system’s information or remove a recipient (see page 131).
• Disable SNMP trap notifications (see page 131).

To set up SNMP trap notifications:

SNMP Trap Manager.The SNMP Trap Manager opens on the SNMP Traps tab of a
