Event notification

You can configure an SNMP Network Manager to notify you when a specific event occurs.

An event usually has a corresponding object in an MIB table. The following table describes four possible events and the MIB objects that correspond to them.
Table 1. Possible events and the corresponding MIB objects
Event MIB object
A database server is not available. onServerMode
Database availability changed. rdbmsRelState
A chunk failed. onChunkStatus
A table is running out of space. onTablePagesAllocated

onTablePagesUsed

For example, you might discover that an application that uses the HCL Informix® database server stopped responding. You can send email to the help desk to report this problem. The help desk can tell you about the problem, and you can look at onSessionTable to determine the cause of the problem.
