snmp user-defined traps & triggers

JIM_SURLOW — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:33:12 GMT

I'm struggling with SNMP and getting my user-defined traps to be received by my traphost. If I restart snmp, I see the coldstart messages, so connectivity to the traphost is fine.

I've performed some cluster failovers (OnTap 7.3.6) and have not seen anything triggered...I've also powered down the partner after failing over. I've unassigned disks to check on disk spare changes (using change-trigger s).

I'm left wondering if I'm missing something required - do I have to use <>.message or <>.priority ?

Examples below... (I normally would call into support on this, but I've always found their knowledge of SNMP lacking; I've reviewed the TRs and the KBs as well. any help appreciated.).

85344-LABNAS-AT> snmp traps walk cf

cfCannotTakeoverCause

active = on

OID = snmp.1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.2.3.3.0

trigger = level-trigger

interval = 60

edge-1 = 2 (up)

backoff-calculator = step-backoff

backoff-step = 240

current-value = 1

cfPartnerStatus

active = on

OID = snmp.1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.2.3.4.0

trigger = double-edge-trigger

interval = 60

edge-1 = 3 (up)

edge-2 = 1 (down)

backoff-calculator = step-backoff

backoff-step = 240

current-value = 2

85344-LABNAS-AT> snmp init
