21.16.2 Starting and stopping the NmsTrapReceiver process

The NmsTrapReceiver process is started automatically by the operating system (Linux: init.d nettrap or nettrap.service on systemd ; Windows: HP NNM NmsTrapReceiver Service). The NmsTrapReceiver process is also started by ovstart if ovstart detects that the NmsTrapReceiver process is not running.

If you need to start or stop the NmsTrapReceiver manually, use the operating system service.

Important

The ovstart and ovstop commands only start and stop the JBoss pipeline for the processing of traps, not the remote trap server.
