  • 1.  IBMi SNMP client to Windows SNMP manager.

    Posted 2 days ago

    Hello, I'm configuring IBM i as a client using SNMP and I'm going to send information to another server that will collect it. I don't understand what and how to send the information, or the manager who collects it and how. How do I prepare the information for sending or collecting it?

    Basic information about SNMP can be found at IBM i SNMP Overview

    You'll see that IBM i only sends a few traps by itself but you could send traps yourself via the necessary API's (see https://www.ibm.com/docs/api/v1/content/ssw_ibm_i_74/apis/unix6.htm ).

    MMM, so there are two parts? The communication setup and the API development to send and control the data?
