Setting Up Responses with SNMP Automation Control Installed

Setting Up Responses with SNMP Automation Control Installed

The file %UMA_HOME%\ci\dat2dmi\dats\ear_snmp.dat defines which response in EAR is to be used for each type of SNMP Trap. When an SNMP Trap is received, it is matched against each line in the ear_snmp.dat file to find the corresponding response in EAR. There is a specific order to matching:

    1. System:SEVERITY:MatchString
    2. System:SEVERITY:
    3. System: :MatchString
    4. System: :
    5. :SEVERITY:MatchString
    6. : :MatchString
    7. Default


Any entry that specifies a system name takes precedence over other entries. A complete match (severity and match string) takes precedence over partial matches.

Within the ear_snmp.dat file:

•  The number after the equal ("=") sign defines which response to use in EAR.
•  The numbers correspond to the responses in the Remote SNMP Events category in EAR.
