Creating an event from PowerVault Storage for suport case creation

Robert,

What versions of SAE and OME do you have?  I’m assuming SAE v1.1 and OME 2.3?  

Did you set up an OME Adapter in SAE to read the alerts under Extension > Manage Adapters?

Are you able to share the alert trapid and eventid and I can check what the threshold is?  

Can you attach or show the application log on or when the event occurred if there are any errors?  Located under:

C:\Program Files\Dell\SupportAssist\logs

OME adapter logs could be found here

C:\Program Files\Dell\Dell EMC SupportAssist Enterprise OME Adapter\logs

If there isn’t much information listed I can give you instructions to turn debug mode on and retest.  

What versions of SAE and OME do you have?  I’m assuming SAE v1.1 and OME 2.3?

--  SupportAssist Enterprise : Version: 1.1.0.133

--  OpenManage Essentials : Version 2.3.0.1721

Did you set up an OME Adapter in SAE to read the alerts under Extension > Manage Adapters?

-- Yes : 10.*.*.* OpenManage Essentials 12 1.0 Connected  (Name / Type / Assigned Device / Version / Status)

Are you able to share the alert trapid and eventid and I can check what the threshold is?  

-- Where can I find trapid and eventid ? I don't see any in OME. I would like to know if I need to use SNMP trap from Powervautl storage device ore SAE is using OME to see alerts.

Can you attach or show the application log on or when the event occurred if there are any errors?  Located under:

-- Nothing within the event time frame

OME adapter logs could be found here

-- I don't see any log within the event tiem frame

If there isn’t much information listed I can give you instructions to turn debug mode on and retest.

Hi,

I've removed one FC and one Power cord from the powervault.

I'm seeing the Health Status with a red status but no alerts

As you can see in the screenshots

Simply pulling the cord once may not be enough, it may need to be twice within a couple of hours, that’s why I need the alert info but no alerts are coming in.

There is no service tag listed.  SAE wouldn’t be able to process alerts without a service tag so there could be a configuration issue with OME and the setup which is outside my expertise.  

I do know ports 161/162 ports needs to be open on OME Server to make sure firewall is not blocking SNMP alerts

MDSM needs to be installed on the OME\SAE server

SNMP needs to be enabled on the on the discovered device and match the community string setup in OME.

OME has a troubleshooting tool and alert listener to verify the alerts are indeed coming in. Perhaps you can login to a discovered iDRAC device and send a few alerts to verify traffic is coming in.

If everything is already in place, in order to provide better assistance, we recommend that you call Dell Tech Support so they can confirm configuration on OME site is correct.  At the same time, they can also confirm SupportAssist is also configured properly to communicate with OME.  The forum isn’t meant for in depth troubleshooting because it’s difficult to obtain the information.

Oki Thank you I will check with Dell Support.

I've tried to make a test with the troubleshooting tool with "SNMP Trap Sender" and I don't receive any alert. But If I test "SNMP Trap Listerner" option, it's working fine and I can see my snmp from outside the OME server or from the same server.

Yes you would need to use the Trap Listener.  Did you send the trap from the PowerVault device or another?  Is your SNMP config enabled on the PowerVault device?  Did you contact support?  If so keep us posted on the resolution.

Hi,

I've talked to Dell support and SNMP call are getting perfectly to the Trap listener. I've rebooted again the Windows server and now, I can get the SNMP event getting througt OME.  At this stage, I can see Trop OID  (3004) in OME but the event doesn't show in SAE.

You see the alert in OME now?  As before no alerts were listed?  Can you send a screen shot?  Where are you looking in SAE?  Is the Device in OME listed under the devices tab?
