SNMP Monitoring

Use SNMP management systems such as HP OpenView or CA UniCenter for remote
monitoring of the ReadyDATA 5200. (Management over SNMP is not supported.) See the
previous section for information about the types of messages that the ReadyDATA 5200 can
send to SNMP hosts.
For information about how to configure SNMP and SNMP hosts, see
page 66.
You can import the NETGEAR SNMP MIB to your SNMP client applications. This MIB is on
the Installation CD included with your unit. You can also download the MIB from
http://support.netgear.com.

About Uninterruptible Power Supplies
NETGEAR recommends that you connect the ReadyDATA 5200 physically to one or more
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) devices to protect against data loss due to power failures.
Once connected, you can add up to three UPS devices to Dashboard to enable the
ReadyDATA 5200 to monitor and manage them. The ReadyDATA 5200 supports SNMP UPS
devices and remote UPS devices.
If you enable email alerts, the ReadyDATA 5200 sends a message if a UPS status changes.
For example, if a power failure forces a UPS into battery mode, or when a battery is low, you
receive an email message.
When any UPS battery is low, or when a power failure occurs, the ReadyDATA 5200
automatically shuts down gracefully. In a configuration with an optional expansion disk array
that is also connected to a UPS, before the ReadyDATA 5200 shuts down, it saves data to
disks in the expansion disk array. However, the expansion disk array does not automatically
shut down. If the batteries in the UPS to which the expansion disk array is connected become
