Mark (or anyone on Toasters), Where do you configure the "trip value"? Also, I have a normal trap setup to go to my SNMP host, but I am not getting alerts, especially when we have QTREES set up to alert us when a QTREE gets to 90%. I have had some QTREES exceed 90% and never was alerted.
Thanks, Eric Pero The Hartford Intel Server Team Eric.Pero@thehartford.com (860)547-4073

Thanks for all the feedback. Immediately after I sent the email I figured out that I can change the trip value to the normal value. Once I did this the traps started cranking up on our traphost. I was then able to view the trap message on our traphost and create notification script by replacing normal values for the actual trip values.
Thanks

You might get the snmpd stuff off the net and send some "fake" traps using that. They won't actually be from your filer, but, it should allow you to test what happens when the traps arrive.
here's the first bit of the "snmptrap" man page out of that package.
SNMPTRAP(1) SNMPTRAP(1)
NAME snmptrap, snmpinform - sends an SNMP trap to a manager

All:
I set up some snmp traps via filer view and I would like to simulate or
test the
traps to make sure they works. I set up traps for a failed disk, failed
pdu,
failed fan, and cluster failover notification. The filer is in production
and I
would like to find a way to test this out without actually failing the
hardware
myself. Any ideas?
