EMS Trap Subagent

Installation

This subsection describes how to install the EMS Trap Subagent.

Dependencies

The following products must be configured and running for the EMS Trap Subagent to
operate properly:
SNMP agent (D23 or later). In addition to the SNMP agent, the subagent needs
these files, distributed with the SNMP agent:
SSMPTMPL: Template Language source code for a trap message DSM
template.
ZSMPTMPL: The TEMPL-compiled version of SSMPTMPL.
EMS (D21 or later). The subagent uses EMSGET.
EMSDIST (D22 or later). This is the object code for the EMS distributor, which
contains the event-to-trap translation functions. Also shipped with EMSDIST is the
ASN.1 source code file (EMSMIBA) for the EMS trap MIB.
DSM Template Services (D21 or later).
At least one SNMP manager communicating with the SNMP agent that is capable
of displaying values for the variable bindings of enterprise-specific traps.

Installation Steps

Run the Distributed Systems Management/Software Configuration Manager
(DSM/SCM) to install EMS, DSM Template Services, and the SNMP agent. Refer to
the DSM/SCM User's Guide for complete software installation information.
The EMS Trap Subagent is installed automatically when you install EMS. Ensure that
the EMS file named ZSMPTMPL is installed in the system template file. When you use
the SYSGEN utility to generate your system, ZSMPTMPL is automatically installed in
the system template file. Otherwise, you must manually install it. Refer to the EMS
Manual for more information.
Then load the ASN.1 source code for the EMS Trap MIB, installed in a file named
EMSMIBA and shown in
traps from the subagent. Compile the MIB as described in the documentation provided
with your SNMP manager. Compiling the MIB makes it possible for the SNMP manager
to display the names (rather than only numeric object identifiers) of MIB objects.
The subagent can then be configured.
