Setting the Event Trap Threshold
The Trap Threshold Level determines how many times an event can occur in a ten minute period before
it is reported to client Received Event Trap windows. To receive email messages, in addition to event traps,
refer to Configuring Policies
on page 58.
1 Log on as SAN administrator.
2 Right-click an appliance in the navigation panel or the graphical panel.
3 Select the Events menu, then select Set Event Trap Threshold.
The Event Trap Thresholds dialog box is displayed.
4 Select the event.
5 Select the Change button.
The Event Threshold dialog box is displayed.
No event is recorded when an FCAL Loop Down occurs, because the threshold is set to “0.”
Most events are set to a threshold of “1,” which means that an event is recorded whenever the condition
occurs.
The FCAL LIP Occurred event is the only event that has a threshold set to something other than “0” or
“1.” It is set to “10.” Users are not typically interested in the occurrence of FCAL LIPs, unless they are
happening once a minute or more.
6 Set the trap event threshold to the number that you have determined will optimize performance.
Do not change trap thresholds unless recommended by your service representative.
7 Select OK.
Receiving Event Traps
By default, event traps are received by the client.
1 Right-click an appliance in the navigation panel or the graphical panel.
2 Select the Events menu, then select Receive Event Traps.
3 Select the check box before the phrase Receive Event Traps.
The check mark is removed and a confirmation dialog box is displayed.
4 Select Yes if you do not want to receive event traps.
Select No if you want to continue receiving event traps.
Monitoring Received Event Traps
When a trap is received, a symbol is displayed in the Status/Message Area on the bottom of the main
screen.
Note
Portal administrators, power users, and basic users are not authorized to
change event trap thresholds. For user privileges, refer to Table 2
on page 40.
Note
If you exit and restart the AMC client, event traps will be received until you turn
them off again.
