Sending SNMPTRAP on Command Line to the CMS

[scotted]

Does anyone know how to send an SNMPTRAP from a Linux system to the HP SIM CMS?

A quick google and I found;
http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man1/snmptrap.1.html

If these are HP Servers and they have the HP Agents installed there's a Trap Send button in the Settings->SNMP Configuration screen. That will send a trap that should generate a Major Event.

I know how to send a trap via the SMH with the "Send Test Trap", however I have had no luck sending a trap from the command line.
