All events that have the
SNMP Trap option as the target in the Alerts page or in the equivalent RACADM or WS-Man interfaces can be received as the SNMP trap through the operating system using iSM. For iDRAC firmware 3.0.0 or later, this feature does not require the iSM LCL replication feature to be enabled. Only the events logged in the Lifecycle Controller log file after iSM is installed are sent as SNMP traps.
Using iSM, you can receive SNMP alerts from the host operating system similar to the alerts that are generated by iDRAC.
By default this feature is disabled. Though the In-Band SNMP alerting mechanism can co-exist with the iDRAC SNMP alerting mechanism, the recorded logs may have redundant SNMP alerts from both sources. It is recommended to either use the in-band or out-of-band option, instead of using both.
NOTE You can use the In-Band SNMP feature on PowerEdge yx3x or later servers with a minimum iDRAC firmware version 2.30.30.30.
