HPTESTEVENT utility

The hptestevent utility allows an application to request, so that the HP Insight Management

WBEM Providers generate the Informational Test Indication with ProviderName “HP Test” and

EventID 1, and the CPQ SNMP test trap with OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.11.2.8.1.0.11003.

The HP Insight Management WBEM Providers must be installed, enabled and running on the system

where this utility is executed. The WBEM Providers must be configured to send indications to the

listener. VMware SNMP traps must be enabled and configured to use WBEM indications as a

source for SNMP traps.

The Informational Test Indication and the CPQ Test SNMP trap will be sent to any listener configured

to receive indications from the system.

See the HP Insight Management WBEM Provider Datasheets for information on the test indication,

and the SNMP Data Migration Guide for information on the test SNMP trap on the BSC (Business

Support Center).
