Guide
Abstract
This guide describes the implementation of SNMP for monitoring HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 storage systems. The
guide lists the monitored storage system components and supported traps, describes the trap protocol and extension MIB, and
explains how to use the GUI to limit SNMP access to specific SNMP managers. The intended audience is a storage system
administrator or authorized service provider with independent knowledge of HP StorageWorks XP storage systems and Remote
Web Console.

  • Page 6: Management Information Base (Mib)

    SNMP uses the TCP/IP UDP. If the SNMP agent does not respond within a specified time period, the SNMP manager re-sends the request packet. That time period is set by the system administrator, taking into account the network traffic and operation policy. If an SNMP agent again does not respond to the re-sent packet, the SNMP manager assumes that an error has occurred.

  • Page 7: Snmp Agent Functions

    Figure 3 Example of SNMP Operations SNMP Agent Functions SNMP Traps An SNMP agent reports a storage system error to a SNMP manager using the trap report function. If an error occurs, an SNMP agent issues an SNMP trap to an SNMP manager to report a failure. Issuing an SNMP trap, an SNMP agent also reports a product number, nickname, reference code, and an identifier of the component.
