No SNMP traps received on the destination server for errors seen in event logs
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Issue
- ONTAP does not generate SNMP traps for certain events and hence these traps are not received at the destination server.
- A manual generation of the same events is not seen under the event notification history show output.
Example:
Test events generated for multiple events, but ic.HAInterconnectLinkDown is not seen in the notification history.
Cluster::> set diag
Cluster::*> event generate -node Node-01 -message-name monitor.volume.nearlyFull -values test,test,test,test,test,test
Cluster::*> event generate -node Node-01 -message-name ic.HAInterconnectLinkDown -values 100,100,100
Cluster::*> event generate -node Node-01 -message-name nis.server.not.available -values TEST
Cluster::*> event notification history show -destination snmp-traphost
