Starting the SNMP trap integration components

In a
deployment, you install the
VMware Smart Assurance
Broker,
,
IP Availability Manager
,
Global Manager
,
Global Console
,
Adapter Platform
,
SNMP Trap Adapter
(receiver), and
products as services so that the host system automatically starts them as processes running in the background each time that the system boots. The respective installation guides—
,
VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance Installation Guide for SAM, IP, and ESM Managers
, and
—for these products describe the services in detail.
Currently, you cannot install the
SNMP Trap Adapter
(exploder) as a service, but you can use the sm_service command to register this adapter as a service after the installation. This section describes how to create and start the service for this adapter in “Start the trap exploder” on page 114. This section also provides additional information about the
service in “The VoIP Notification Trap Adapter service” on page 116.
Typically, in any
VMware Smart Assurance
deployment, the order in which the applications are started is not important, except that the Broker must be started first.
