Verifying Connectivity to the CMS
Send an SNMP Test Trap to the CMS
You can use the SMH interface and follow the directions in "Configuring SNMP" on page 38, then click
Send Trap on the Settings tab. However, you can also enter the following command to issue a test trap
to the CMS:
snmptrap -v 1 -c public [CMS IP Address] .1.3.6.1.4.1.232 [Linux managed
system IP Address] 6 11003 1234 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 s test
.1.3.6.1.4.1.232.11.2.11.1.0 i 0 .1.3.6.1.4.1.232.11.2.8.1.0 s [provide
your own identifiable identifier and time stamp]
Reviewing Test Events Sent from Managed Systems
Some managed system types allow you to send a test event, trap, or indication to the CMS. After you
configure your managed system and send a test event, trap, or indication to the CMS, use the following
process to find the test event, trap, or indication on the CMS.
1. Log on to System Event Analyzer (SEA):
a. On the CMS, click Start Programs Hewlett-Packard Service Tools System Event
Analyzer System Event Analyzer.
Note: If you are logging on to the CMS from another system, open a Web browser and type
the following URL: https://localhost:7906
If localhost does not work, use the Fully Qualified Domain Name or the IP address of the
CMS instead.
b. You will be prompted to enter a Profile User Name for your session; this can be any name you
choose. Enter the name and click Logon.
c. If you are prompted by the browser that the site does not have a signed certificate, click the link
that will let you continue to the web page. This application is hosted on the CMS.
2. In the SEA interface, click on the WEBES Notification Status icon (see the circled icon in the image
below).
3. If your managed system is properly configured and you sent a test event, it will appear on the output
of the SEA.
