How do I test alerts in SIM ?
We have a first level support staff that will be monitoring the hardware alerts.
How do i test an alert in SIM?
I want to make sure that the trap is being sent to the appliance that the first level company is using.
We can ping and telnet to the appliance from the SIM server and I am pretty sure all the necessary ports are open.
Is there a page on the SIM server that I can test from?
Hope I am making sense.
thanks for any help

Re: How do I test alerts in SIM ?
If you have a test server with a raid array you could pull one of the drives out and create a real alert.

Re: How do I test alerts in SIM ?
I guess my question was misunderstood.
On HP Proliant servers if you go to the "Systems Management" homepage of the server there is a "test SNMP Trap" button you can use to simulate a test trap.
is there something equivalent in SIM?

Re: How do I test alerts in SIM ?
That has a Trap Send button.
Use that to generate a trap, it generates a Major Event.
You'll need an Event handler to catch all Major Events and alert in the manner you see fit.
This tests that SNMP on the server is sending traps, HPSIM is receiving them and your event handling is doing what you expect.
This way you don't need to pull disks etc.
