The iDRAC generates events that result in Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps and/or entries in the iDRAC Lifecycle Log. This section describes the traps, also known as alerts, generated by the iDRAC.
The iDRAC generates events in response to changes in the status of sensors and other monitored parameters. When an event with predefined characteristics occurs on your system, the SNMP subagent sends information about the event, along with trap variables, to the management console.
Each event generates an identifier called the trap ID and a list of trap variables that provide additional details about the event. The trap variables are listed in the following on Trap Variables.
