The message parameter

The message parameter specifies a message that goes out with a trap.

The message can be a string of text or simply the SNMP OID, in the form snmp.oid. If you specify the OID as your message, Data ONTAP sends the information that was trapped concerning the OID. If you do not specify a message parameter for a trap, when the trap fires you see a string with the numerical OID value and its priority level.

For example, the following string is sent to the network management stations for the trap cpuUpTime if the message parameter is not set:

cpuUpTime == 10562288.priority == notification

Note: If the message is a string that includes spaces, you must enclose the string in quotation marks (" ").

You can not set the message parameter in FilerView.
