Users Guide
Refer to your operating system documentation for information on configuring the operating system to forward SNMP traps. This information may be located
under such topics as "setting up SNMP" or "SNMP traps." When configuring SNMP, be sure that the SNMP traps are forwarded to the correct server. For
information on configuring an application to receive SNMP traps, refer to the documentation for that application.
SNMP Trap Definitions
The Storage Management management information base (MIB) defines the SNMP traps that Storage Management generates. These traps correspond to the
alerts documented in "Alert Descriptions and Corrective Actions." The MIB is located in a subdirectory of the Storage Management installation directory. The
subdirectory location for the MIB is ..\sm\mibs\dcstorag.mib.
Viewing SNMP Traps
SNMP traps that are generated by Storage Management can be viewed in any standard SNMP-compatible enterprise management console. These traps are
defined in the Storage Management MIB. These traps correspond to the alerts documented in "Alert Descriptions and Corrective Actions." For more information

For more information on configuring SNMP, see "SNMP Support for Storage Management Alerts."
Alert Descriptions and Corrective Actions

Administrator Alert subtab or through Windows Event Viewer. These alerts can also be forwarded as SNMP traps to other applications.
SNMP traps are generated for the alerts listed in the following sections. These traps are included in the Storage Management management information base
(MIB). For more information on SNMP support and the MIB, see "SNMP Support for Storage Management Alerts."
