Important This documentation space contains information about PATROL Agents when deployed in a TrueSight Operations Management environment. If you are a BMC Helix Operations Management user, see PATROL Agent for BMC Helix Operations Management 23.3.

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
