NMS (Manager) Settings
There are two areas of consideration when coordinating an NMS with a RemotEye II. First, the Manager
software on the NMS must be prepared to handle the RemotEye II Management Information Base (MIB),
and second, the Manager must be configured to receive any traps the RemotEye II sends.
Importing the MIB File
The MIB file, Toshiba.mib, is contained on the included CD-ROM. This file describes the information that
is attainable from a Toshiba UPS.
The Toshiba MIB file must be manually entered (imported or compiled) into the Manger database. For
instruction on incorporating private MIB files into the Manager, consult the Manager software
documentation.
Prior to importing the Toshiba MIB file, the MIB file RFC1213.MIB (not provided) must also be imported.
This file outlines the SNMP MIB-II standard used by RemotEye II.
MIB Import Example
This example shows how to incorporate the Toshiba MIB into the Manager application HP OpenView
Workgroup Node Manager. The software runs on the Windows platform.
Launch HP OpenView Workgroup Node Manager.
From the Control pull down menu, click SNMP Manager → Manage Database → Select → (map to the
MIB file, Toshiba.mib, on the included CDROM) → click ADD.
Click Close to close the SNMP Manager Database.
Specifying Trap Receivers
To send traps to an NMS, the NMS must be designated as a trap receiver of the RemotEye II. See Trap
Receiver Table section on page 36 for instruction on defining a trap receiver.
Configuring the Trap Receiver
The trap handler of a Manager application varies between software developers. For specific information
about a trap handler, consult the Manager software documentation.
Understanding RemotEye II Specific Traps
The RemotEye II offers four specific traps. The traps provided are outlined below:
Specific 1: Sent initially when the UPS enters the Battery Backup mode. Persists at 60 second intervals
thereafter.
Specific 2: Sent after a UPS test has completed.
Specific 3: Sent whenever a UPS alarm condition has been added to the RemotEye II alarm table.
Specific 4: Sent whenever a UPS alarm condition has been removed from the RemotEye II alarm table.
Definition of RemotEye II Trap Attributes
Each specific trap contains additional information called attributes. The number and the information
available differ for each specific trap.
