Description

SNMP objects

The listed Acronis products provide the following Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) objects to SNMP management applications:

  • Type of event
    Object identifier (OID): 1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.1.0
    Syntax: OctetString
    The value may be "Information", "Warning", 'Error" and "Unknown". "Unknown" is sent only in the test message.

     

  • Text description of the event
    Object identifier (OID): 1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.2.0
    Syntax: OctetString
    The value contains the text description of the event (it looks identical to messages published by Acronis product in its log).

     

Example of varbind values:

1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.1.0:Information

1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.2.0:I0064000B

Supported operations

Acronis products support only TRAP operations. It is not possible to manage Acronis products using GET- and SET- requests. This means that you need to use an SNMP Trap receiver to receive TRAP-messages.

More information

Download Acronis MIB File.

- In Acronis Backup & Recovery 11/11.5 and Acronis Backup Advanced for VMware, the MIB file acronis-abr.mib is located in the installation directory. By default it is  %ProgramFiles%\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery in Windows and /usr/lib/Acronis/BackupAndRecovery in Linux.

- In Acronis vmProtect and Acronis Backup for VMware, the MIB file is unavailable locally.

This file can be read by a MIB browser or a simple text editor such as Notepad or vi.

When configuring SNMP notifications, you can send a test message to check if your settings are correct.

The parameters of the test message are as follows:

  • Type of event
    OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.1.0
    Value: "Unknown"

     

  • Text description of the event
    OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.2.0
    Value: "?00000000"
