Overview
The Peer Management Center provides support for SNMP v1 messaging. A SNMP notification notifies recipients when a certain type of event occurs, for example, session abort, host failure, system alert.
When an SNMP notification is applied to a job, a SNMP trap is sent to the destination IP address or hostname whenever a selected notification type is triggered by the job.
An SMNP notification consists of a unique name, a selection of notification types, source IP address, along with a trap prefix and destination. The available notification types depend on the job type.
When you create a job, you can select an existing SNMP notification to apply to the job or you can create a new notification and apply it to the job. You cannot modify or delete a notification while it is applied to a job. An SMNP notification can be applied to multiple jobs of the same type. SNMP notifications are defined in the preferences for a job type. An SNMP notification can be applied to all job types except File Locking and File Replication.
To manage SMNP notifications:
1.Select Preferences from the Window menu.
The Preferences dialog appears.
2.Select the job type from the navigation tree and expand it.
3.Select SMNP Notifications from the navigation tree.
The SMNP Notifications page lists existing SMNP notifications for that job type. You can create, edit, copy, and delete notifications.
