Overview

The built-in Verba monitoring solution supports SNMP traps (v2), using a Verba specific set of SNMP Trap OIDs. Please refer to the following article: Alerts

In order for it to work, you need to configure it on all servers and desktop components installed in your Verba system, such as:

Verba Recording Servers
Verba Media Repository
Verba Desktop Recorders
Verba Remote Components (e.g. Lync Filters, Remote Capture Providers)

Step 1 - Activate the Verba System Monitor Service

Verba System Monitor Service is activated by default on all Verba systems and is configured for email sending. However it still worth checking that the service is not disabled and is actually running.

The SNMP traps are sent by the Verba System Monitor Service. In order to configure and use it, the service should be activated and started.
