Configure INFORM notifications

Before you begin

Create SNMP agents.

An SNMP agent that uses the SNMPv2 or SNMPv3 protocol can send one of two types of notifications when a monitored attribute crosses a defined threshold:

• TRAP. The agent sends a TRAP notification once and assumes that the SNMP manager received the message.

• INFORM. The agent sends an INFORM notification and waits for a response from the SNMP manager that indicates the manager has received the message. If the manager does not respond, the agent resends the notification.

By default, a WebLogic Server SNMP agent sends TRAP notifications.

To configure an SNMP agent to send INFORM notifications:

1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).

2. In the Administration Console, under Domain Structure, expand Diagnostics and select SNMP.

3. On the Summary of SNMP Agents page, in the Server SNMP Agents table, click the name of an SNMP agent.

4. On the SNMP Agent: Configuration: General page, check the Inform Enabled box.

5. Optionally modify the default values for Inform Retry Interval and Maximum Inform Retry Count. For more information, see Configuration Options.

6. Click Save.

7. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
   Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
