Use the SNMP settings to control communication, such as alerts, between the Rapid Recovery Core and an SNMP browser. Available settings include the incoming and outgoing SNMP ports, trap receiver port, and the host name for the trap receiver.
|
NOTE: Rapid Recovery builds prior to release 6.1 do not include the ability to change the Community string setting. Release 6.4 and later have the option to specify an outgoing SNMP port. |
Use this procedure to configure SNMP settings for the Core.
The SNMP Configuration settings are displayed.
Text Box | Description | ||
---|---|---|---|
Handle incoming request |
To let the Core recognize incoming SNMP protocols, select this option. To block incoming SNMP protocols, clear the option.
| ||
Community string |
Enter a name for the community.
| ||
Incoming port |
Enter a port number for the SNMP connection.
| ||
Outgoing port |
Optionally, enter a port number for the outgoing SNMP connection.
| ||
Send traps |
To allow alerts (traps) to be sent using the SNMP protocol, select this option. To block alerts, clear the option. | ||
Trap receiver port |
Enter a port number for the incoming alert. The default setting is 162. | ||
Trap receiver host name |
Enter a host name for the SNMP connection.

The Simple Network Management Protocol is used to monitor devices on a network for conditions that require attention. When the Rapid Recovery Core is set as an SNMP agent, the Core report information such as alerts, repository status, and protected machines. This information can be read by an SNMP host using a standalone application called an SNMP browser.
Data objects managed by SNMP agents are organized into a Management Information Base (MIB) file that contains Object Identifiers (OIDs). Each OID identifies a variable that can be read or set using SNMP.
You can download a MIB file from the Rapid Recovery Core. This file, named quest-rapid-recovery-core.mib, can then be read by an SNMP browser in a more user-friendly fashion than data it receives directly from the Core.
Use this procedure to download the SNMP MIB file from the Rapid Recovery Core.
The Downloads page appears.
The SNMP Configuration settings appear.
The MIB file opens in the selected application.
VMware vSphere is a suite of virtualization software, from which you can manage ESXi or vCenter Server virtual machines. If using vSphere, you no longer need to load the Rapid Recovery Agentsoftware onto individual VMs to protect them. This is called the agentless protection feature, which applies only to virtual machines.
Use this procedure to configure vSphere settings for the Core.
UI Element | UI Type | Description | ||

Maximum simultaneous consolidations |
Text field |
Sets the maximum number of simultaneous consolidations for protected virtual machines.
| ||
Maximum retries |
Text field |
Sets the maximum number of attempts for connection to a virtual disk or read and write operations before a timeout.
| ||
Allow parallel restore |
Boolean (check box) |
When this option is checked, enables parallel restore for an agentless virtual machine. When this option is cleared, this function is disabled.
