What is vmwVpxdHostName?
Carries the name of the vSphere ESXi host referenced in a vCenter alarm notification; this varbind is marked obsolete, superseded by the more general vmwVpxdTargetObj. Admins receiving legacy vCenter traps used it to identify which physical host the alarm pertained to. A trap with vmwVpxdHostName set to "esx-host-12.corp.local" would identify that specific ESXi host as the subject of the alarm.
