420 Troubleshooting and Recovery
To test an event trap for an alert destination:
1
Log in to the CMC Web interface.
2 Select Chassis in the system tree.
3 Click the Alerts tab. The Chassis Events page displays.
4 Click the Traps Settings tab. The Chassis Event Alert Destinations
page displays.
5 Click Send in the Test Trap column beside the destination.
NOTE: Specify trap destinations as appropriately-formatted numeric addresses
(IPv6 or IPv4), or Fully-qualified domain names (FQDNs). Choose a format that is
consistent with your networking technology/infrastructure. The Test Trap
functionality is unable to detect improper choices based on current network
configuration (e.g. use of an IPv6 destination in an IPv4-only environment).
Using RACADM
1 Open a serial/Telnet/SSH text console to CMC and log in.
NOTE: Only one filter mask may be set for both SNMP and e-mail alerting.
You may skip step 2 if you have already selected filter mask.
2 Enable alerting by typing:
racadm config -g cfgAlerting -o cfgAlertingEnable 1
3
Specify the events for which you want CMC to generate by typing:
racadm config -g cfgAlerting -o
cfgAlertingFilterMask <mask value>
where <mask value> is a hex value between 0x0 and 0xffffffff.
To obtain the mask value, use a scientific calculator in hex mode and
add the second values of the individual masks (1, 2, 4, etc.)
using the <OR> key.
For example, to enable trap alerts for Battery Probe Warning (0x2),
Power Supply Failure (0x1000), and KVM failure (0x80000), key 2
<OR> 1000 <OR> 200000 and press the <=> key.
The resulting hex value is 208002, and the mask value for the RACADM
command is 0x208002.
