Informational event SNMP traps

When an IBM service representative ends a secure connection with the DS8000, an informational event is generated. If the call home feature is enabled, IBM support is notified. In addition, the SNMP agent generates a generic trap 6 specific trap 13 message.

Traps for informational events have the same structure as hardware or microcode error traps, but some of the error-specific fields might be left blank, such as FRU list.
