Event Generation

LSF detects events occurring during the operation of LSF daemons. LSF provides a

program which translates LSF events into SNMP traps. You can also write your own

program that runs on the master host to interpret and respond to LSF events in

other ways. For example, your program could:

◆ Page the system administrator

◆ Send email to all users

◆ Integrate with your existing network management software to validate and

correct the problem

On Windows, use the Windows Event Viewer to view LSF events.

Enabling event generation

SNMP trap program

If you use the LSF SNMP trap program as the event handler, see the SNMP

documentation for instructions on how to enable event generation.
