vmwNsxMEdgeHaSwitchOverStandby

Module: VMWARE-NSX-MANAGER-MIB

OID (symbolic): VMWARE-NSX-MANAGER-MIB::vmwNsxMEdgeHaSwitchOverStandby

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.90.1.2.4.0.42

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: A notification generated when High Availability switch over has happened for NSX Edge. The primary NSX Edge VM has its state transitioned from ACTIVE to STANDBY. High Availability (HA) ensures that NSX Edge services are always available, by deploying an additional Edge VM for failover. The primary NSX Edge VM is the ACTIVE node and the secondary VM is the STANDBY node. Whenever the ACTIVE VM is unreachable on account of VM powered off or network connectivity issues, the STANDBY VM takes over the ACTIVE vm's role. When connectivity is re-established between the NSX Edge VM's, one of the VM's state is transitioned from ACTIVE to STANDBY. Action required: None

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> '' VMWARE-NSX-MANAGER-MIB::vmwNsxMEdgeHaSwitchOverStandby
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.90.1.2.4.0.42

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:
