Introduction

The
(sm_notify) converts
IP Manager
or
notifications to SNMP trap messages and sends the trap messages to user-specified locations. Its behavior is controlled by the trap-notify.conf file shown in Location of trap-notify.conf.
Location of trap-notify.conf
The main purpose of the
is to accommodate third-party management systems that do not have the software to read
VMware Smart Assurance
notifications but do have the software to read SNMP traps. The adapter uses the trap message format that is specified in the SNMP Trap Notifier MIB to convert
VMware Smart Assurance
notifications to traps. The SNMP Trap Notifier MIB is part of the
VMware Smart Assurance
private MIB, which is defined in the SMARTS-MIB.my file that is shown in Location of trap-notify.conf.
The BASEDIR/smarts/conf/notifier directory appears in both the
IP Manager
installation area and the
installation area.
