This appendix explains the function used to send the details of Resource Orchestrator events to other products as SNMP traps.
Functional Overview
By receiving SNMP traps sent by Resource Orchestrator on other products (operation management products, etc.) it is possible to monitor major Resource Orchestrator 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 Orchestrator 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 "5.7 rcxadm eventctl" in the "Reference Guide (Command) VE".
The SNMP traps sent by Resource Orchestrator contain information about the operation details of Resource Orchestrator. For events related to status changes of resources managed by Resource Orchestrator 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 Orchestrator events that are sent as SNMP traps, check the event log of the ROR console.
Setup Procedure
This section explains the procedure for setting other products to receive Resource Orchestrator 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 alphanumeric characters, hyphens ("-"), and underscores ("_") for the SNMP community name.
Load the Resource Orchestrator MIB file on the product that is to receive SNMP traps.
The MIB file that defines the SNMP traps for Resource Orchestrator is located in the following folder on the admin server.
[Windows Manager]
Installation_folder\SVROR\Manager\etc\mibs\RCVE-Event-Trap-MIB.mib
[Linux Manager]
/etc/opt/FJSVrcvmr/mibs/RCVE-Event-Trap-MIB.mib
Register destination servers using the rcxadm eventctl add command of Resource Orchestrator.
Modification Procedure
Use the following procedure to change SNMP trap destination settings:
Delete the target destination server information using the rcxadm eventctl delete command of Resource Orchestrator.
Register the new destination servers using the rcxadm eventctl add command of Resource Orchestrator.
Deletion Procedure
Delete the target destination server information using the rcxadm eventctl delete command of Resource Orchestrator.
Operation Checks
Use the following procedure to confirm that SNMP trap destinations have been registered correctly.
From the ROR console, place the desired managed server into maintenance mode.
In the ROR 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 ROR 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 four 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 Orchestrator 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 Orchestrator SNMP traps can be received.
