Testing Email Addresses; Viewing Email Notification Settings; Setting Up Snmp Notifications - HP StorageWorks x9300 Administrator's Manual

To turn off all Alert notifications for admin@hp.com:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_event -d -e ALERT -m admin@hp.com
To turn off the server.registered and filesystem.created notifications for
admin1@hp.com and admin2@hp.com:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_event -d -e server.registered,filesystem.created
-m admin1@hp.com,admin2@hp.com

Testing email addresses

To test an email address with a test message, notifications must be turned on. If the address is
valid, the command signals success and sends an email containing the settings to the recipient. If
the address is not valid, the command returns an address failed exception.
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_event -u -n EMAILADDRESS

Viewing email notification settings

The ibrix_event command provides comprehensive information about email settings and
configured notifications.
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_event -L
Sample output follows:
Email Notification

Setting up SNMP notifications

X9000 Software supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) V1, V2, and V3.
NOTE: Users of software versions earlier than 4.3 should be aware that the single ibrix_snmp
command has been replaced by two commands, ibrix_snmpagent and ibrix_snmptrap.
If you have scripts that include ibrix_snmp, be sure to edit them to include the correct commands.
Whereas SNMPV2 security was enforced by use of community password strings, V3 introduces
the USM and VACM. Discussion of these models is beyond the scope of this document. Refer to
RFCs 3414 and 3415 at
In the SNMPV3 environment, every message contains a user name. The function of the USM
is to authenticate users and ensure message privacy through message encryption and
decryption. Both authentication and privacy, and their passwords, are optional and will use
default settings where security is less of a concern.
With users validated, the VACM determines which managed objects these users are allowed
to access. The VACM includes an access scheme to control user access to managed objects;
context matching to define which objects can be accessed; and MIB views, defined by subsets
of IOD subtree and associated bitmask entries, which define what a particular user can access
in the MIB.
Steps for setting up SNMP include:
Agent configuration (all SNMP versions)
Trapsink configuration (all SNMP versions)
