Can someone help configuring SNMP traps for ESX 3.0.2 server. I've installed OpenMange 5.2 already but don't know how to configure snmp.conf file. Please provide details how to edit the .conf file.
Installing Dell OpenManage 5.2 Agents on the VMware Service Console
ESX Server 3.0.2 supports Dell OpenManage 5.2 management agents. Before installing the Dell OpenManage
software on the service console, you must install some additional files as described below.
To install the software
1 Ensure that you have the Dell OpenManage installation media.
2 Log into the VMware Service Console as root.
Mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
3 Change to the directory where the installation files are stored.
cd /mnt/cdrom/srvadmin/linux/supportscripts
4 Run the installation script.
./srvadmin-install.sh
5 For environments managed with a Dell OpenManage IT Assistant management station, configure
SNMPD to send SNMP traps to the management station. To add trapcommunity & trapsink, edit
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf.
============================
Example on Windows Trap settings:
Traps tab:
Community Name: TRAPNAME Trap Destination: 167.16.xxx.xxx
Security Tab:
Checked "Send authentication trap"
Accepted community names: TRAPNAMES - READ ONLY
Accept SNMP packets from these hosts:
167.16.xxx.xxx
(list of addresses here)
===============================================
Should I enter the same entries as Windows trap configuration? Please advice how your .conf looks like.
