Check whether the setup is correct. Use the following steps to check the setup:
This software receives generic traps 0 to 5, which are SNMP Traps not unique to a specific vendor, and it decodes their contents and displays information about each event (that does not use Systemwalker Centric Manager linkage or Shell/bat linkage.) As one of generic traps 0 to 5, a COLD START trap is issued by an ordinary device. When using this trap to test whether the software can correctly receive an SNMP Trap.
A device sends the COLD START trap and other traps by turning OFF and ON the device to be managed, performing a variety of setup tasks (setup of the SNMP environment for ETERNUS), doing other such work. Check whether the event is displayed with regard to the above operation and trap.
However, generic traps 0 to 5 are not normally required, so after the test is completed, you can disable display of generic traps 0 to 5 by using the following method:
Edit the following definition file:
Platform of Manager | File Location |
|---|---|
Windows | $ENV_DIR\Manager\etc\opt\FJSVssmgr\current\sanma.conf |
Solaris OS, | /etc/opt/FJSVssmgr/current/sanma.conf |
Edit one description as follows (0=Hide, 1=Show): DISPLAY_SNMP_STANDARD_EVENT = 0;.
Using the Web Console, execute re-read definition file and import the definition files into the program.
The server node (Agent) provides the following command that issue SNMP Trap for the test.
Platform of Agent | Command Location |
|---|---|
Windows | $INS_DIR\Agent\bin\traptest [ipAddress] |
Solaris OS, | /opt/FJSVssage/bin/traptest [ipAddress] |
Only in the environment where the host holds two or more IP addresses, a server node's IP (Agent start IP address) address which the manager recognizes is specified to ip-address.
Make sure the IP address input is correct, if the event cannot be received correctly.
If the device was set up normally, an event will be issued to the Web Console when this command is executed.
SNMP Trap test command cannot linkage to Shell/bat. Modify the SNMP definition if necessary.
To modify SNMP Trap definition, modify ESC agent SNMP Trap definition file which is located 1_3_6_1_4_1_211_4_1_3_21_2_2.xml. SNMP Trap test is defined as the first number of "Specific Trap Type". You may change the action for this trap. Refer to "A.5 SNMP Trap XML Definition File" for SNMP Trap definition file.
Information
For VMware vSphere 4 or later, it is unnecessary to execute this test because the fault monitoring function by receiving SNMP Traps is not supported.
The community name of a test SNMP Trap is fixed to "public".
Events cannot be linked with Systemwalker Centric Manager or Shell/bat for the standard SNMP Trap. To test the Systemwalker Centric Manager linkage and Shell/bat linkage of an SNMP Trap from a device, execute a tentative SNMP Trap command for the test on the Management Server. This command changes internal information of an SNMP Trap so that the SNMP Trap seems to have been sent from a device being monitored, and it sends such an SNMP Trap to the system's own port for receiving the SNMP Trap. Since descriptions of events are linked to Systemwalker Centric Manager and Shell/bat, Systemwalker Centric Manager linkage and Shell/bat linkage can be tested. To test the Shell/bat linkage of an SNMP Trap of the server node agent, use the method described in [Test 2].
For the IP address of an argument, specify the IP address of a device (ETERNUS Disk storage systems or Fibre Channel switch) registered with this software. The contents of this simulated SNMP Trap are loaded into the event log.
The commands shown below are executed to generate a simulated SNMP Trap for the ETERNUS DX series device registered with this software. Using these commands, the manager creates the simulated trap, receives the same trap, and checks whether the displayed event and shell/bat linkage are correct. Here, the simulated trap is a fan fault with "public" as the Community name. This simulated trap has arbitrary test information that is distinct from actual trap information.
Also, the ETERNUS Disk storage systems can issue an SNMP Trap from the device by using the "SNMP Trap sending test" function of ETERNUS Web GUI. Though the test uses a simulated trap, its results are the same as those from a test that sends a real trap and checks the response, since the trap is sent from an actual ETERNUS Disk storage systems.
Platform of Manager | Command Location |

Windows | $INS_DIR\Manager\opt\FJSVssmgr\bin\grtraptest ipAddress |
Solaris OS, | /opt/FJSVssmgr/bin/grtraptest ipAddress |
The commands shown below are executed to generate a simulated SNMP Trap for a Fibre Channel switch registered with this software. (A simulated error that is a port fault is issued.):
