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.

If you provide vFoglight information in the Core settings, the Core Console displays a vFoglight URL for each protected VM on its Summary page. Clicking this URL opens information about the VM in vFoglight.
Complete the following steps to integrate your vFoglight server with your Rapid Recovery Core server.
The vFoglight configuration settings are displayed.
Text Box | Description |
---|---|
Use https | Enables or disables secure hypertext transfer protocol. Secure HTTPS is the default. |
Host | Enter a host name or IP address for your vFoglight server. Consult your vFoglight server administrator for details. |
Port | Specify the appropriate port. The default port is 32896. Consult your vFoglight server administrator for details. |
Authentication token | Provide the proper authentication to let the Core communicate with your vFoglight server. Consult your vFoglight server administrator for details. |
