6.3 HP StoreAll 9300/9320 Storage Administrator Guide (AW549-96072, June 2013)
The command to create a group assigns its SNMPv3 security level, read and write views, and
context name. A context is a collection of managed objects that can be accessed by an SNMP
entity. A related option, -m, determines how the context is matched. The format follows:
ibrix_snmpgroup -c -g GROUPNAME [-s {noAuthNoPriv|authNoPriv|authPriv}]
[-r READVIEW] [-w WRITEVIEW]
For example, to create the group group2 to require authorization, no encryption, and read access
to the hp view, enter:
ibrix_snmpgroup -c -g group2 -s authNoPriv -r hp
The format to create a user and add that user to a group follows:
ibrix_snmpuser -c -n USERNAME -g GROUPNAME [-j {MD5|SHA}]
[-k AUTHORIZATION_PASSWORD] [-y {DES|AES}] [-z PRIVACY_PASSWORD]
Authentication and privacy settings are optional. An authentication password is required if the
group has a security level of either authNoPriv or authPriv. The privacy password is required if the
group has a security level of authPriv. If unspecified, MD5 is used as the authentication algorithm
and DES as the privacy algorithm, with no passwords assigned.
For example, to create user3, add that user to group2, and specify an authorization password
for authorization and no encryption, enter:
ibrix_snmpuser -c -n user3 -g group2 -k auth-passwd -s authNoPriv
Deleting elements of the SNMP configuration
All SNMP commands use the same syntax for delete operations, using -d to indicate the object is
to delete. The following command deletes a list of hosts that were trapsinks:
ibrix_snmptrap -d -h lab15-12.domain.com,lab15-13.domain.com,lab15-14.domain.com
There are two restrictions on SNMP object deletions:
• A view cannot be deleted if it is referenced by a group.
• A group cannot be deleted if it is referenced by a user.
Listing SNMP configuration information
All SNMP commands employ the same syntax for list operations, using the -l flag. For example:
ibrix_snmpgroup -l
This command lists the defined group settings for all SNMP groups. Specifying an optional group
name lists the defined settings for that group only.
Event notification for MSA array systems
The StoreAll event system does not report events for MSA array systems. Instead, configure event
notification for the MSA using the SMU configuration wizard. In the SMU Configuration View
panel, right-click the system and select either Configuration > Configuration Wizard or Wizards >
Configuration Wizard. Configure up to four email addresses and three SNMP trap hosts to receive
notifications of system events.
