Collection Failure Notification
Step 3 Click either Apply to apply the option or click Cancel to discard the changes.
Collection Failure Notification
You can use the Collection Failure Notification window to configure the receipt of Trap messages by the
host(s) mentioned in the env.properties file on Inventory Collection or Config Fetch failure. This Trap is
sent for each device from the RME server whenever the collection does not happen.
The destination IP address to which the traps are to be sent can be configured in the env.properties file.
This file is available under this location:
NMSROOT/MDC/tomcat/webapps/rme/WEB-INF/classes/com/cisco/nm/
rmeng/util/env.properties
where NMSROOT is the actual CiscoWorks install directory.
The variables that can be configured in the env.properties file are:
NOTIFY_IP
This variable allows you to configure the destination IP addresses for the receipt of trap messages. The
initial value assigned to this variable is DEFAULT. Replace this DEFAULT with the IP address of the
host(s) to which the Trap messages need to be sent. You can specify comma-separated IP addresses to
which the trap messages are to be sent.
Example 1
You can set 10.10.10.10 as the destination IP Address to receive trap messages.
NOTIFY_IP = 10.10.10.10
Example 2
You can set 10.10.10.10, 20.20.20.20, and 30.30.30.30 as the destination IP Addresses to receive trap
messages.
NOTIFY_IP = 10.10.10.10,20.20.20.20,30.30.30.30
NOTIFY_PORT
This variable allows you to configure the destination Port number to which the trap messages are to be
sent. The initial value assigned to this variable is 162 and it is the default value. You can change this port
number if you want to assign anyother port to receive Trap messages. Trap 162 is the recommended port
to receive trap messages.
Example
You can set port 164 as the destination Port to receive the trap messages.
NOTIFY_PORT = 164
Any third party Trap receivers in the host(s) mentioned in the env.properties can receive the Trap
messages on Config collection/Inventory collection failure.
