Module: VMWARE-VMINFO-MIB

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

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.5

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: This trap is sent when a virtual machine is suspended. The origin of this event may be several: operator initiated, by software api clients, and by other means. 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::vmwVmSuspended
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.5

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:
