Send an SNMP Trap When a Replicated Update Is Refused

If a DSA refuses an update, the data in those two DSAs is inconsistent, and this could indicate a serious problem. You can make a DSA send an SNMP trap when a replicated update is refused by another DSA.

The trap will contain diagnostic information on why the update failed.

If the peer DSA is unreachable, no SNMP traps are sent for updates sent to it. However, when the peer DSA is reachable but it refuses an update, the trap is sent.

To send an SNMP trap when a replicated update is refused

  1. Configure traps
  2. Add the following command to the DSA's configuration: 
    set multi-write-error-trap = true | false;
  3. Restart the DSA.
