To enable the SystemRestarted event:

  1. In a Polling and Thresholds Console that is attached to the IP Availability Manager, click the Thresholds tab to display the thresholds group tree.

    Instructions for opening the Polling and Thresholds Console are presented in “Opening the Polling and Thresholds Console” on page 18.

  2. In the thresholds group tree, click the plus signs (+) to expand the thresholds group tree to display the system resource groups: Switches, Routers, Hubs and Bridges, and Other Systems.

  3. To enable the SystemRestarted event for a particular system resource group, click its Connectivity setting, set the EnableGenericOIEvent parameter to ENABLED, accept or modify the value of the MaxUpTimeThreshold parameter, and click Apply to save your changes.

    Procedures for modifying groups are given in “Working with groups and settings” on page 104.

  4. Repeat step 3 for each system resource group for which you want to enable the SystemRestarted event.

  5. Click Reconfigure to implement your changes.

  6. Go to the BASEDIR/smarts/bin directory in the IP Manager installation area and type the following command to open the tpmgr-param.conf file:

                   sm_edit conf/discovery/tpmgr-param.conf
                
  7. Set the EnableSystemRestart parameter to TRUE and accept or modify the values of the OITrapAdapterHost and the OITrapAdapterPort parameters.

  8. Save and close the file.

    The modified version of the tpmgr-param.conf file is saved to the BASEDIR/smarts/local/conf/discovery directory.

  9. Issue the following command from BASEDIR/smarts/bin to make your changes to the tpmgr-param.conf file take effect:

                   sm_tpmgr -s <IP Manager instance name> --load-conf=tpmgr-param.conf
                
  10. Go to the BASEDIR/smarts/bin directory in the Service Assurance Manager installation area and type the following command to open the trap_mgr.conf file:

                   sm_edit conf/icoi/trap_mgr.conf
                
  11. Uncomment the following notification definition (shown uncommented) to enable the Adapter Platform to transform SystemRestarted traps into SystemRestarted notifications:

    #System restart traps
    BEGIN_TRAP .1.3.6.1.4.1.733 6 13
            ClassName:        SNMPTrap

            ElementName:      $V1$

    END_TRAP
    BEGIN_TRAP * 1 0

            State:            NOTIFY
            EventType:        MOMENTARY
    END_TRAP
    
  12. Save and close the file.

    The modified version of the trap_mgr.conf file is saved to the BASEDIR/smarts/local/conf/icoi directory.

  13. If the Adapter Platform was running before you edited the trap_mgr.conf file, restart the Adapter Platform.

    The VMware Smart Assurance Service Assurance Manager Adapter Platform User Guide provides detailed procedures for configuring the Adapter Platform and the SNMP Trap Adapter.
