vCenter alarms & SNMP Trap

Gang-

I try to get my vCenter alarms to send traps SNMP for SNMP Manager/receiver so we can automatically open the service tickets based on certain types of vCenter alarms.  I have loaded MIB and OID translate for VMWARE-VC-EVENT-MIBs.

Everything goes well and using the free utility TrapReceiver I'm able to test receive interrupts.

Here's my problem...

I don't know how vCenter is differentiate the name of alarm vCenter in trap data.  Some vCenter alarms/traps, I want my ticket system to open lower or higher priority tickets, so I need to figure out how vCenter translated the alarm at the "vmwVpxdObjValue" into the trap.  Unfortunately I can't find any information on how to translate this value and I don't want to wait for all my events to trigger production, just to get a sample, so I don't know what to expect.

Any ideas?

VMWARE-VC-EVENT-MIB

vpxdAlarmInfo

notification

OID - 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.3.0.203

Thank you

Well shoot - that isn't quite right either.

Seems that if it is a fault of the alarm system, the TRAP will leverage the value of $alarm.extensiondata.info.systemname as the beginning of the vmwVpxdObjectValue data.

If it is a user/custom alarm, it seems to refer to the value of $alarm.extensiondata.info.name.

I have to have a script that includes both.

  • SNMP traps

    If I enable all SNMP traps instead of activate certain specific traps. Will there be an effect on the performance of the device or the network performance?

    allowing all the traps could have an impact on performance. Each product trap will be resources for treatment. If there are a lot of pitfalls that occur at the same time it could potentially affect the performance while these traps are processed.

    By default, are indicators of authentication, Link Up/Down, several users and Spanning Tree

    permit. I would recommend allowing specific traps that you need to watch over the default.

  • SNMP Trap Variable alertSystemFQDN

    I have a client with a PE r.620 with an iDRAC7 tries to monitor the integrity of their server with interruptions SNMP hardware. They are especially interested in the varbind alertSystemFQDN (1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.4.5000.10.8), which is apparently not defined and appears empty when they receive the iDRAC SNMP traps. Exactly how is set the varbind alertSystemFQDN? It is configurable by the user through racadm, or based on a DNS lookup, or what? I could not find a sufficient explanation in the reference Guide of SNMP for iDRAC8.

  • SNMP traps may explain PPPoE users on a router?

    For purposes of verification, I want to use SNMP traps to account for PPPoE users on a router?  I don't see a way to do this.  Is is possible?  If not, what is the best way to go about this?

    "Server enable snmp traps pppoe" is not providing this type of info, any more than I think it should anyway. OTOH, if you configure "accounting aaa" global or "ppp accounting" by interface, the NAS (your rtr) can report these modules to the server (RADIUS or GANYMEDE) AAA:

    rtr# show accounting

    Active Accounted actions on tty0, User (not logged in) Priv 1
     Task ID 1, EXEC Accounting record, 00:35:16 Elapsed
     task_id=1 service=shell

    Active Accounted actions on tty33, User ellie Priv 1
     Task ID 16, EXEC Accounting record, 00:00:17 Elapsed
     task_id=16 service=shell

    Active Accounted actions on Interface Async33, User tom Priv 1
     Task ID 17, Network Accounting record, 00:00:13 Elapsed
     task_id=17 service=ppp protocol=ip addr=10.0.0.1

    Then it's a matter of instrumentation of a solution on the AAA alert/report server however you want for the listeners. I think that SNMP trap would not be the first choice as a mechanism of benefit in this case, as there are a lot more simple options on a server.

    Alternatively, if you believe this info can be obtained with some show commands on the router itself and the router supports EEM, I'd want a solution based EEM on the other Network Management forum (https://supportforums.cisco.com/community/netpro/network-infrastructure/network-management), which can certainly generate an SNMP trap as a result.

  • Disable vEthernet snmp trap-the link on 1000v status

    Hello-

    Are there options to disable the registered link interruption snmp on the 1000v Veth interfaces?  The normal 'without snmp trap the status of the link"command is not available on a Vethernet interface on port-profile.  You can do it on the connection ports rising physics, but who don't buy me anything.  The example of this shows doc you can, but that doesn't seem correct to me, http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus1000/sw/4_2_1_s_v_1_4/command/reference/n1000v_cmds_s.html#wp1309091

    I prefer not to disable all notifications link snmp status, but maybe it's the only option.

    Thanks in advance

    Hey Chad,.

    I created the Bug next to track this problem in versions 1.4 and 1. 4A:

    CSCtx41516 - Disable 'snmp trap link-status' on a vethernet interface

    Essentially, it is a summary of the discussion in this thread and try I did accordingly. If all goes well, you should be able to find out.

    With respect to the request to apply the configuration to the port-profile level, I went back and tested whether this feature was never available in SV1(3b), (3d) SV1, SV1 (4) and SV1(4a). The answer to that is unfortunately not.

    If you need this feature, because it would be beneficial in your environment where you create interfaces vethernet 1000 +, I recommend that join you your team account/sales and put in place a business case for the feature request. They can help to put it together and try to get the feature approved by the developers and the Business Unit request.

    I would like to know if there is something else.

    Thank you

  • Generate SNMP traps for monitoring tests

    Hi all

    We would like to test our network management system effectively.

    We have configured SNMP. But as we cannot generate some breakdowns that we want to generate some test traps.

    Could you tell me if there is a way to generate the CLI for i.e. false SNMP traps?

    Ideally, we would like to test things like: excess temperature, the FAN failure, failure of power, etc...

    Any help would be appreciated,

    Thank you very much in advance

  • Configuration of SNMP Traps

    Hey guys,.

    Can you explain to me - or point me in the direction - where I can be better able to determine the difference between the following keys.

    config config enable SNMP traps
    config-copy Copy config enable SNMP traps
    config-ctid enable SNMP config-ctid traps
    config-copy Copy-config enable SNMP traps

    Thank you

    Nik

    The trap of the 'config' allows the ciscoConfigManEvent notification, which is triggered when you exit the configuration mode or make a SNMP set.

    "Config-copy" and "copy-config" traps are the same on different platforms and activates the ccCopyCompletion trap and fires when a copy of configuring through SNMP operation ends.

    The trap of "config-ctid" allows the ccmCTIDRolledOver or ciscoConfigManCTIDNotifyGroup, which seems to be related to the functionality of changing the configuration identifier of follow-up .

  • Interpretation of the events of SNMP Trap

    Hey everybody,

    I currently receive SNMP traps for important alerts to the IPS, we put in place. The logs for these traps look like this:

    ENT value 6:. 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.383.1.2.3 = This signature is a Metacomponent

    ENT value 7:. 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.383.1.2.4 = Visual Studio Msmask32.ocx ActiveX Buffer Overflow

    ENT value 8:. 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.383.1.2.5 = 6990

    First of all, how can I know what strings like "Ent value 8:. 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.383.1.2.5" mean? Is how important it?

    Second, what is the best way to interpret these traps? I guess I need to write a custom script to gather important details and to do what I want with them?

    Pointers would be very useful! I just want to know what I'm getting into. :)

    Thank you!

    You can search the OID in this tool:

    http://Tools.Cisco.com/support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?local=en

    There are many collectors of SNMP trap free and commercial that would help you to that effect. Scripts can participate really sometimes, but of course, if you're an expert at home, no need to pay money to achieve your desired goals.

  • Unable to collect vCenter alarms/tasks/events

    Hello

    I have a journal Insight 3.0 and installing vCenter Server 5.5 U2b environment.

    I created a clone of Read-Only and add the following permissions:

    Global.Licenses

    Global.SetCustomField

    Host.Config.AdvancedConfig

    Host.Config.NetService

    Host.Config.Network

    Host.Config.Settings

    This role is spread from data centers (upper level) and connected to an AD user account.

    When I integrate Log Insight with my any snippet vCenter and it is saved correctly in the Administration tab for the particular Server vCenter (collect vCenter Server events, tasks and messages is checked), but nothing ever appears in vCenter alarms / tasks despite the fact that there are a lot of things for at least a month back. I use a custom range, which should be enough.

    I tried the same thing in our development environment with an administrator privileged account and it works fine, I get a lot of vCenter alarms and whatnot in the dashboards. However, I want to use the least permissions if possible.

    Am I missing a permission/privilege? Is there a log file I can check for errors/warnings?
