vmwVmPoweredOn

OID (symbolic): VMWARE-VMINFO-MIB::vmwVmPoweredOn

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.1

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: This trap is sent when a virtual machine is powered on from a suspended or a powered off state. The origin of this event can be several: for instance may be operator initiated, existing vmx process reconnects to control subsystem. NOTE: vms powered up due to VMotion are not reported. Upon receiving this notification client applications should poll the vmwVmTable to obtain current status.

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-VMINFO-MIB::vmwVmPoweredOn
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.1

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:
