Thanks for your help Both the dsmsnmp and the dpid2 processes are running, but no snmp traps received yet!:

(found in the server install directory)from your messages, it looks like you probably don't have the dsmsnmp agent running... ....Is the DPID2 process running? As far as I understand, the communication goes like this: TSM -> DSMSNMP -> DPID2 -> SNMPD Patrick Varney Pacific Gas & Electric Company Fairfield Information Operations Center (FFIOC) Enterprise Services Group (ESG), Senior Network Specialist -----Original Message----- From: Robert Dowsett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 7:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Problem sending SNMP traps Hi everyone I have recently been trying to set up eventlogging on TSM via SNMP. Our setup: TSM server 3.7.5, aix 4.3.3 I've added dsmserv.opt to include commethod snmp and the snmpsubagent parameter points to the local host (where snmpd runs) using a configured community name. I ran: begin eventlogging & enable event snmp all q eventrules gives the following: enable events snmp all The dsmsnmp process is running and is, I believe, successfully communicating with the agent (snmpd). Snmpd is successfully sending out non-TSM traps which get collected by the trapd on our monitoring system. We receive NO events from TSM via SNMP. TSM seems to have a problem maintaining a connection with the subagent (using port 1521). According to netstat port 1521 is not in use by any other process. We get these error messages (repeating every 5 minutes for roughly one hour) when we restart the TSM server: 11/21/01 15:08:41 ANR4660I Connected to SNMP subagent at 127.0.0.1 on port 1521. 11/21/01 15:08:41 ANR4663W Failure receiving message from SNMP subagent. 11/21/01 15:08:41 ANR4664W Failure in registering with SNMP subagent. 11/21/01 15:13:41 ANR4660I Connected to SNMP subagent at 127.0.0.1 on port 1521. 11/21/01 15:13:41 ANR4663W Failure receiving message from SNMP subagent. 11/21/01 15:13:41 ANR4665W Failure re-trying registration with SNMP subagent. Has anyone got any ideas or suggestions as to why TSM is not sending out events as SNMP traps?? Thanks in advance for your help Robert Dowsett Norsk Hydro
