Chapter 3: ProLiant Linux Server Configuration
a. In the SNMP Configuration File add a trapsink command that includes the CMS IP address,
for example trapsink 1.2.3.4 public, and click Change.
The trapsink command is required for events to be sent to Insight Remote Support Advanced
for analysis. If the trapsink command is not configured, Insight Remote Support Advanced will
not receive traps.
A rocommunity directive allows SNMP GET and GETNEXT access. It is required for discovery
and by the analysis rules. The format is: rocommunity <community_string>, for example
rocommunity public. The community string used must be the same read community string
configured in the HP SIM and WEBES SNMP protocol assigned to the ProLiant Linux server. The
rocommunity is used during analysis rules trap processing to retrieve additional information not
supplied with traps.
The rwcommunity directive allows SNMP GET, GETNEXT, and SET access. It is not required for
use by Insight Remote Support Advanced, but may be needed by other applications.
Note: For those Linux installations (for example Red Hat 4 or 5) that support the added
security of view statements, then the following adjustments should be made from the
defaults. If you do not assign the trapsink entry as public, then you must configure a new
SNMP protocol for this managed system and any other using the same community string
through HP SIM on the CMS.
5. For the CMS to collect all relevant information about this managed system, you need to scroll down in
the SNMP Configuration File to the view systemview included entries. The view
systemview included entry allows Insight Remote Support Advanced to read the entire .232 MIB
tree and gather all of the analysis data when events occur. Comment out the default entries with a #
character. Then add this entry:
view systemview included .1 80, and click Change.
