SNMP trap sender

Post by Mani.Murugesan »

Hello Team,

We have enabled snmp trap sender on our production server and sometimes i will take a backup of production and then i will restore it on DR server .
In DR also snmp trap sender enabled after restoring prod backup so any option is available to disable the snmp trap sender ?
bacause i am getting some unknown issues so could you please let me know if any option is available ?

You can go to Admin -> Manage Components -> SNMP Trap Sender
uncheck "Enable SNMP trap sender integration"
Click Apply Settings

You might be able to stop trap sending on the DR box by going to admin, monitoring engine status, and disable the first 5 things under process settings, or just stop all with the top button... In theory that would stop passive check processing such as traps.

This would only be correct of you want to have the DR machine to not process any active to passive checks. I would not recommend this.

There is no way to disable this automatically on restore of backup.
