pmNewRoleNotification

Module: POLICY-BASED-MANAGEMENT-MIB

OID (symbolic): POLICY-BASED-MANAGEMENT-MIB::pmNewRoleNotification

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.124.0.1

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: The pmNewRoleNotification is sent when an agent is configured with its first instance of a previously unused role string (not every time a new element is given a particular role).

An instance of the pmRoleStatus object is sent containing the new roleString in its index. In the event that two or more elements are given the same role simultaneously, it is an implementation-dependent matter as to which pmRoleTable instance will be included in the notification.

Examples

Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):

snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' POLICY-BASED-MANAGEMENT-MIB::pmNewRoleNotification
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.2.1.124.0.1

Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):

snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public

Example snmptrapd log entry:

zoo11-linux.zoo [UDP: [192.168.30.111]:61620->[192.168.30.10]:162]:
