Important This documentation space contains information about PATROL Agents when deployed in a BMC Helix Operations Management environment. If you are a TrueSight Operations Management user, see PATROL Agent 22.1.

Set SNMP trap format

The PATROL Agent can send SNMP trap information in two different formats. To select a format, set the variable of the desired format to yes and set the variable of the other format to no.

Note

If both variables are set to yes for a single event, the agent issues two SNMP traps: one in V3.0 format and one in V3.1 format.

3.1 format

The /AgentSetup/pemIssueV31traps configuration variable detemines whether PATROL uses version 3.1 formats to send SNMP traps.

 

3.1 example

Following is the SNMP trap for PEM Standard Event 11 in 3.1 format:

From: 127.11.502.22 (1.6.3.4.1.4.1201.1.1.7) Enterprise Specific (5) Uptime: 0 day(s) 0:13:16 (79686)
1.6.3.4.1.4.1201.1.1.7.1.0 85 string Alarm #2 of global parameter 'parm' triggered on 'PSLCOM.PSLCOM'. 3 <= 3.00 <= 3
1.6.3.4.1.4.1201.1.1.7.2.0 23 string /PSLCOM/PSLCOM/parm
1.6.3.4.1.4.1201.1.1.7.3.0 0 string

3.0 format

The /AgentSetup/pemIssueV30traps configuration variable detemines whether PATROL uses version 3.0 formats to send SNMP traps.

 

3.0 example

Following is the SNMP trap for PEM Standard Event 11 in 3.0 format:

From: 127.11.502.22 (1.6.3.4.1.4.1201.1.1.7) Enterprise Specific (11) Uptime: 0 day(s) 0:18:08 (108876)
1.6.3.4.1.4.1201.1.1.7.1.0 29 string /PSLCOM/PSLCOM/parm ALARM
