Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support

Using the SNMP Agent, you can monitor and manage the status of the Launcher and associated map events. The SNMP Agent can be used to configure thresholds, monitor Launcher performance, and assist in identifying failure situations.

SNMP support is provided with the Launcher on all Windows and UNIX platforms. It supports the following traps:

Trap

Warnings and Errors Generated

Map failure

It signals when a map fails.

State and listener change

It signals a change in the state of the Launcher or listeners.

Launcher/resource connection failure

It notifies the SNMP management software that the connection to the Launcher and the resource could not be established.

Thresholds

It signals when a map or connection pending state threshold has been met.

Additionally, an SNMP adapter allows for custom-defined traps to be issued from within the business logic of a map.
