SNMP Trap: Process Memory Threshold Status¶
A trap is generated when the a process memory exceeds its current threshold.
Identification
The originating IP / hostname is used to identify the system generating the traps
The NMS is responsible for associating traps with each managed system, along with clearing of alarms and escalation to the relevant system operator
The trap OID is generic for various SNMP events monitored by the system
The SNMP system name is included as part of the variable binding to assist identification:
.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysName.0 = standalone
Trap OID
.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.dismanEventMIB.dismanEventMIBNotificationPrefix. dismanEventMIBNotifications.mteTriggerFired
Variable Bindings - Process exceeds memory threshold.
.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysUpTime.0 = 2 minutes (12065)
snmpTrapOID = mteTriggerFired
.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.dismanEventMIB.dismanEventMIBNotificationPrefix. dismanEventMIBNotificationObjects.mteHotTrigger.0 = ‘<process name: mem_<name> exceeded maximum value of current_threshold with current_reading>’
.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.dismanEventMIB.dismanEventMIBNotificationPrefix. dismanEventMIBNotificationObjects.mteHotValue.0 = 1
.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysName.0 = standalone
