Hi,

i have created a snmp and a correlated event got from netapp when a volume is full and what i get is a hex string rather then the message itself in text.
i have checked the event log and the snmp log and they both show the message text in hex.

what do i do ?
b.t.w - a feature request with this subject, view snmp log the same way we see event log and audit log.

Best Regards,

Hi!

NetXMS converts string to hex string if it sees non-printable characters in it. It is not configurable now - I'll add an option to override this behavior in next release.

hi victor,

this will be great.
will it do this automatically ? will it pop up an alarm for me to change it manually or will i have to wait till a message arrives to change it ?

I plan to add additional option to SNMP trap parameter mapping - something like "don't convert to HEX string".
