Edit the config file: /cai/agent/services/config/aws_sadmin/aws_sadmin.cfg

This configuration file identifies each remote system that receives mainframe traps.

To edit the aws_sadmin.cfg file

  1. Specify an SNMP_TRAP entry with the corresponding machine name or IP address and port number 162 or 6162, depending on the port number used by the remote system's trap listener.
  2. Substitute the sample values with your own machine name or IP address in the default file. It is preferable to use the machine name.
    SNMP_TRAP xyzwin2k3.ca.com|162 # traps to NSM manager Machine
    

    or

    SNMP_TRAP 172.24.138.21|6162 # traps to another NSM manager Machine
    

    Note: This file also lists SNMP community names and their attributes, which are not usually changed. Any line in this file that starts with a pound sign (#) is a comment and is ignored by the runtime system.

    The following trap destinations are not the same:

    Correct

    SNMP_TRAP 172.24.138.21|6162 # non-padded IP Address
    

    Wrong

    SNMP_TRAP 172.24.138.021|6162 # Padded IP Address
    

    Note: Zero-padding of IP addresses is not allowed. IP addresses should be specified exactly as they are returned from the TCP/IP stack (when queried using the IPCONFIG command in DOS under Windows, for example).

    A Tab character (X'05') is used as the delimiter between the SNMP_TRAP and SNMP_COMMUNITY keywords and their associated values and following comments. The Tab character usually appears as a period in the ISH and UNIX System Services editor.
