This section explains the function used to send the details of Resource Coordinator VE events to other products as SNMP traps.
Function Overview
By receiving SNMP traps sent by Resource Coordinator VE on other products (operation management products, etc.) it is possible to monitor major Resource Coordinator VE events on other products. With this function, in operating environments where monitoring is mainly performed using the consoles of other products, as it is not necessary to constantly display the Resource Coordinator VE console, centralization of the monitoring console is possible.
Function Details
SNMPv1 traps are sent to servers registered as destinations. Destination servers are registered, changed, and deleted using the rcxadm eventctl command.
For details on this command, refer to "5.8 rcxadm eventctl" of the "ServerView Resource Coordinator VE Command Reference".
The SNMP traps sent by Resource Coordinator VE contain information about the operation details of Resource Coordinator VE. For events related to status changes of resources managed by Resource Coordinator VE and events internal to resources, the SNMP traps will be sent by the resource itself.
The events that are the target of sending as SNMP traps are as follow:
FJSVrcx:INFO:21143:operation:started
FJSVrcx:INFO:21144:operation:completed
FJSVrcx:INFO:21145:operation:cancelled
FJSVrcx:ERROR:61143:operation:failed
FJSVrcx:ERROR:61144:operation:rollback failed
For details of the Resource Coordinator VE events that are sent as SNMP traps, check the event log of the RC console.
Setup Procedure
This section explains the procedure for setting other products to receive Resource Coordinator VE SNMP traps.
Here it is assumed that installation of other products for receiving SNMP traps has been performed, and that basic settings such as those of the SNMP trap service necessary to receive traps and the required ports, have been made.
Configure a SNMP community name for the product that will receive SNMP traps.
Enter a string of up to 32 alphanumerical characters, hyphens ("-"), and underscores ("_") for the SNMP community name.
Load the Resource Coordinator VE MIB file on the product that is to receive SNMP traps.
The MIB file that defines the SNMP traps for Resource Coordinator VE is located in the following folder on the admin server.
[Windows]
Installation_folder\Manager\etc\mibs\RCVE-Event-Trap-MIB.mib
[Linux]
/etc/opt/FJSVrcvmr/mibs/RCVE-Event-Trap-MIB.mib
Register destination servers using the add subcommand of the rcxadm eventctl command of Resource Coordinator VE.
Modification procedure
Use the following procedure to change SNMP trap destination settings:
Delete the target destination server information using the delete subcommand of the rcxadm eventctl command of Resource Coordinator VE.
Register the new destination server (after change) using the add subcommand of the rcxadm eventctl command of Resource Coordinator VE.
Deletion procedure
Delete destination servers using the delete subcommand of the rcxadm eventctl command of Resource Coordinator VE.
Operation Checks
Use the following procedure to confirm that SNMP trap destinations have been registered correctly.
From the RC console place the desired managed server into maintenance mode.
In the RC console server resource tree, right-click the desired server (or its physical OS), and select [Maintenance Mode]-[Set] from the popup menu.
The [Set Maintenance Mode] dialog is displayed.
Click <OK>.
The managed server is released from maintenance mode.
In the RC console server resource tree, right-click the desired server (or its physical OS) and select [Maintenance Mode]-[Release] from the popup menu.
The [Release Maintenance Mode] dialog is displayed.
Click <OK>.
As a result of the above operation, the following 4 events will be sent as SNMP traps to the registered server. If the destination has been registered correctly, it is possible to check the receipt of the Resource Coordinator VE SNMP traps on the destination device.
Please note that the display of SNMP traps varies depending on the product.
Event ID | OID |
|---|---|
FJSVrcx:INFO:21143: setting maintenance mode:started | 1.3.6.1.4.1.211.4.1.3.55.100.1.2.1.21143 |
FJSVrcx:INFO:21144: setting maintenance mode:completed | 1.3.6.1.4.1.211.4.1.3.55.100.1.2.1.21144 |
FJSVrcx:INFO:21143: releasing maintenance mode:started | 1.3.6.1.4.1.211.4.1.3.55.100.1.2.1.21143 |
FJSVrcx:INFO:21144: releasing maintenance mode:completed | 1.3.6.1.4.1.211.4.1.3.55.100.1.2.1.21144 |
If the receipt of SNMP traps cannot be confirmed, use the rcxadm eventctl command to check if the desired destination has been registered correctly. If there are no problems with the registered details, check that there are no problems with the network or the settings for the SNMP trap destination. After resolving any problems, repeat the above procedure and check if the Resource Coordinator VE SNMP traps can be received.
