Using SNMP to view or change HCP settings
You can use the fields HCP-MIB and other MIBs to view and, when allowed, change HCP settings. The interface you use for these activities depends on your SNMP tool. Here are examples of viewing and changing HCP settings with the command-line tool net-snmp:
- To view the total storage capacity of the HCP system:
Command:
snmpget -v 2c -c public -m +/usr/share/snmp/mibs/HCP-MIB.txt snmp.hcp-ma.example.com HCP-MIB::totalCapacity.0
Response:
HCP-MIB::totalCapacity.0 = Counter64: 562110914560
- To set the shredding rate to low:
Command
snmpset -v 2c -c public -m +/usr/share/snmp/mibs/HCP-MIB.txt snmp.hcp-ma.example.com HCP-MIB::shreddingRate.0 i 5000
Response:
HCP-MIB::shreddingRate.0 = INTEGER: low(5000)
