Help with "SNMP Service Properties" "Traps" Tab
You can specify a Community String and with each Community String you can set the Trap Destinations. What should be here?
The Read_Only Community String for SIM?
The Read_Write Community String for SIM?
or Both?
The Trap Destination should be the SIM server?
I am confused between this Tab and the Security Tab where you specify the Community Strings and Destinations as well.

Re: Help with "SNMP Service Properties" "Traps" Tab
The Traps tab is used for sending alerts to your SIM (or other) console when there is a problem. For example a disk drive failure. You should be able to use either Read/Create or Read/Write.
The security tab is for when the SIM console intiates a task such as data collection or HW status. You SIM server has to be configured with the Security Community String in order to sucessfully gather this data.

Re: Help with "SNMP Service Properties" "Traps" Tab
Does it really need read/write or read/create if its just sending information to SIM (i.e. my hard drive failed). I believe SIM is recieving all the traps with just the Read_Only string, but wanted to make sure I was missing some functionality by not using Read_Write or Read_Create.

Re: Help with "SNMP Service Properties" "Traps" Tab
The Community used at the Traps-tab will be used for sending traps (like: Disk Failure) from the Managed Server to the HPSIM-server. As this is just sending information and not doing anything else, READ-ONLY access is enough.
Trap Destination is the HPSIM-server.
The Security-tab is used for Incoming SNMP-traffic. There wil be only Incoming SNMP-traffic in the following occasions:
-Cleaning up some logs, like the IML
-Setting thresholds for disk space or processor load in the SMH Performance tabs.
As you see, incoming SNMP-traffic always requires some Write action on the Managed System, so here at least a READ-WRITE community is required. READ-ONLY is useless, READ-CREATE a bit overkill.
For simplicity you might use only one SNMP-Community name for everything, with READ-WRITE access on Managed Systems.
If you enter two (or more) Community-names at the Traps-tab, with Trap Destination the same server, you will get two (or more) traps for the same event on your HPSIM-server.

"If you enter two (or more) Community-names at the Traps-tab, with Trap Destination the same server, you will get two (or more) traps for the same event on your HPSIM-server."
I don't know that I've ever seen that statement anywhere before. Can someone confirm?

Re: Help with "SNMP Service Properties" "Traps" Tab
No benefit to receiving both, just these names happened to be already set on the servers I was looking at so set SIM to use both.
