Troubleshooting
Problem
This document provides instructions for generating an SNMP trap message from an alertable message and sending to an SNMP Manager.
Resolving The Problem
To generate an SNMP trap message from an alertable message and send to a SNMP Manager, do the following:
| 1 | Run the CHGMSGD command, and change the ALROPT parameter to *IMMED. |
| 2 | Run the ADDCOMSNMP command to define the community name and manager Internet address. |
| 3 | Run the CRTFTR command to create a filter with type *ALR. |
| 4 | Run the ADDALRSLTE command to add alert selection entry. Type the filter name that you created in Step 3 and its library, selection data relationship, attribute, relational operator, value (for example, *IF *MSGID *EQ CPD26D4), sequence number, and group name. |
| 5 | Run the ADDALRACNE command. Type the filter, its library (Step 3) , group name (from Step 4), and generate SNMP trap *YES. |
| 6 | Run the CHGSNMPA command to specify the trap manager internet address and community name. To verify if a trap is sent, specify log traps *YES. The SNMP journal entries are in QSNMP in library QUSRSYS. |
| 7 | Run the STRTCPSVR *SNMP command to start the SNMP agent job. |
| 8 | Run the CHGNETA ALRSTS (*on) ALRLOGSTS (*local) ALRFTR (using the name and library of filter created in Step 3) |
