Using Dell Smart Plug-in (SPI) 19
To view the Dell systems in the HPOM Service Map view:
a Select Systems Infrastructure under Services in the HPOM console.
The Service Map view is displayed on the right pane.
b Click Dell Hardware and click Dell Windows Servers. The Service
Map
view displays all the Dell systems that are grouped under Dell
Modular Systems
and Dell Monolithic Systems .
c Every system in the Service Map view has two components — Dell
SNMP Traps
and Dell Server Health. The two components display
the severity status of the system based on SNMP traps and Server
Health Poll. For more information see, "SNMP Trap Based Severity
Propagation".
NOTE: To know the actual health of the Dell system, you must view the
status in the Dell Server Global Health service.
SNMP Interceptor Policy
The SNMP interceptor policy Dell_Process_SNMPTraps processes all SNMP
traps sent from the Dell systems to the management server, generates
formatted messages, and sends them to the HPOM console. The SNMP
Interceptor policy has pre-defined rules for processing all the OMSA/OMSS
traps sent by the Dell devices.
For every trap received from the Dell systems, the SNMP interceptor policy
processes the traps in the following manner:
1
Sends a message to the active message browser of the node, which sends
the trap.
2 Reflects the severity of the message in the Dell SNMP Traps service in the
Service Map view.
3 Retrieves the global health status of the node and sends a message with
the global health status to the active message browser of the node. You can
also view the global health status in the global health service of the node.
