6.5.1 Sending alerts to the SNMP manager

You can use the translator agent service to send alerts to the SNMP manager. The SNMP manager converts alerts received from a managed server to MIB, which is a network management database, and then sends them using SNMP. The alerts sent by SNMP are reported as events to the SNMP manager where the alerts become viewable. For details about the linkage with the SNMP manager, see 13. SNMP Translator.

Note
The SNMP translator cannot convert alerts issued by the agent service to SNMP for transmission. For details about the alerts that can be sent by the SNMP translator, see Invent.xls stored in the Help folder at the ServerConductor installation destination.
