SNMP Options

The 3494 Tape Library can attach to many different host systems, with various
operating systems that communicate with the 3494 Tape Library using different
types of connections. During operation, the 3494 Tape Library may encounter
situations that you would want to know about, such as a door being opened
(which causes the 3494 Tape Library to stop). Because there are many different
attachment methods, the 3494 Tape Library provides a standard TCP/IP protocol
called Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to send alerts (called SNMP
traps) over a TCP/IP LAN network to one or more SNMP monitoring stations.
These monitoring stations, along with other user-supplied software, can alert
operations staff to possible problems or operator interventions that occur at the
3494 Tape Library. Figure 230 on page 357 shows a basic SNMP block diagram.
