SNMP management

You can manage storage devices using SNMP with a network management system such as HPE Systems Insight Manager (SIM) or HP Instant Support Enterprise Edition (ISEE). See their documentation for information about loading MIBs, configuring events, and viewing and setting group objects.

To view and set system group objects, SNMP must be enabled in the storage system. See Enabling or disabling system management services. To use SNMPv3, it must be configured in both the storage system and the network management system that intends to access the storage system or receive traps from it. In the storage system, SNMPv3 is configured through the creation and use of SNMP user accounts, as described in User settings. The same users, security protocols, and passwords must be configured in the network management system.

To obtain the MIB, see www.dell.com/support.
