HP Insight Remote Support 7.0.9 Monitored Devices Configuration Guide

LeftHand OS 9.5 and higher Management Groups configure the Hosting Device SNMP trap host

destination once at the Management Group level. Even though you only configure SNMP once at the

Management Group level under CMC 10.0 and higher, you need to configure SNMP on the Hosting Device

to allow traps from all LeftHand OS nodes.

Note: For LeftHand OS Management Groups, users can configure the Hosting Device trap host

destination P4000 CLI createSNMPTrapTarget command instead of using CMC. The

getGroupInfo command will show the current SNMP settings and SNMP trap host destinations

configured at the Management Group level.

Note: If using the P4000 CLI (CLIQ) createSNMPTrapTarget or getGroupInfo commands, the

path environment variable is not updated when the P4000 CLI is installed with Insight RS. You

will need to use the full path for the P4000 CLI, which is [InsightRS_Installation_Folder]

\P4000.

To verify and/or update your SNMP settings, complete the following steps:

1. Open CMC.

2. Verify that SNMP is enabled for each storage system:

Note: LeftHand OS ships by default with SNMP enabled for all storage systems and

configured with the "Default" Access Control list.

Note: LeftHand OS Management Groups configure the Hosting Device SNMP trap host

destination once at the Management Group level. With LeftHand OS, you can configure

different severity Alert levels to send from the Management Group. Under Insight Remote

Support, configure each Management Group to send v1 SNMP traps of Critical and

Warning levels in Standard message text length.

a. Select SNMP in the left menu tree and open the SNMP General tab.

b. Verify that the Agent Status is enabled.

Verify that the P4000 Storage System SNMP Community String is set to public or the same

value configured in the Insight RS Console for SNMP discovery.

In the Access Control field, verify that either Default is listed or the Hosting Device host IP

address is listed. The Default option configures SNMP to be accessed by the public

community string for all IP addresses.

Note: The SNMP settings on the P4000 Storage Systems need to match the SNMP

settings on the Hosting Device.
