Important! The aws_sadmin.cfg file must be changed to enable the sending of the SNMP traps to destinations. The ENVFILE file must also be tailored so that mainframe agents can communicate with Agent Technology.
The aws_sadmin service sends SNMP traps to the distributed NSM machines. To achieve this goal, the aws_sadmin service must know the DNS name or IP address (and listener port) for the NSM machines. This information is stored within file aws_sadmin.cfg in directory $AGENTWORKS_DIR/services/config/aws_sadmin. Update this file with the appropriate DNS names or IP addresses of your NSM machines. Preserve the nondisplayable tab characters (x'05) contained within this file. These characters are used as field delimiters on the SNMP_TRAP lines.
The aws_sadmin.cfg file is also used to define the SNMP community strings for the aws_sadmin SNMP service. By default, these strings are set to public (for read access) and admin (for write access). If your site requires more secure SNMP community strings, these names can be changed to meet your needs. Again, be sure to preserve the nondisplayable tab characters (x'05) contained within this file. These characters are also used as field delimiters on the SNMP_COMMUNITY lines. Also, any change to the SNMP community strings must be reflected in the configuration of the NSM machines. Be sure to make your NSM administrator aware of these changes. An agent can have its own community strings that are specified in a configuration set. This configuration set is unique to that agent and which overrides the default community strings that are specified in the aws_sadmin.cfg file.
