SNMP MIB support

You can use SNMP with HCP to view and modify system settings and receive notifications of certain types of events. HCP comes with a MIB, defined in the HCP-MIB.txt file, that includes fields and traps specific to the system. HCP also supports many of the standard Linux-based MIBs available with SNMP.

HCP-MIB exposes information about the HCP system as a whole, so you get the same information regardless of which storage node you access. The standard MIBs, on the other hand, expose information about individual nodes, so the information you get applies only to the specific storage node that you access.

You can use many of the fields in HCP-MIB to both view and modify system values. With the fields in the standard MIBs, you can only view system values.

This appendix lists the supported standard MIBs and explains how to find out which fields are exposed through them. (HCP exposes all the fields in HCP-MIB.)

For more information on using SNMP with HCP, see Configuring SNMP. For descriptions of the fields HCP exposes in each supported MIB, including HCP-MIB, see the MIBs themselves. For information on downloading the HCP-MIB.txt file, see Viewing and downloading the HCP-MIB.txt file.
