Administration Guide
If you are using NetView for AIX as the network manager for your SP system,
you must configure it to recognize SP trap and configuration
information.
- Copy the file /usr/lpp/ssp/config/snmp_proxy/ibmSPMIB.my
from an SP node into /usr/OV/snmp_mibs as ibmSP.mib
on the node running NetView for AIX.
- If you have dependent nodes attached to your SP system, copy the file
/usr/lpp/ssp/config/spmgrd/ibmSPDepNode.my from the control
workstation into /usr/OV/snmp_mibs as
ibmSPDepNode.mib on the node running NetView for AIX.
- Load the appropriate MIBs using the NetView for AIX menu option
Load/Unload MIBs.
Traps generated containing events from SP nodes and the control workstation
are displayed automatically at the NetView for AIX Control Desk if
the node on which the event originated is a managed node. If the node
is not managed, the event is recorded in the event history file and is
displayed only when you query the event history file. The traps contain
object values indicating:
- The trap ID
- The variable name
- The event predicate definition that caused the event
- The value of the variable at the time the event was generated
- Information necessary to use the NetView for AIX browse facility to query
the node for the current value of the variable or for more information about
the characteristics of the variable and its value.
You may tailor the information in the traps by using the Trap
Customization selection under the Event/Configuration AIX menu
option.
