This dll is loaded by the SNMP service on startup.
Check that these variables are set OK. In order to set the registry variable correctly, the
account that the MonitorMagic service runs with should have full access rights to this key.
If the account does not have sufficient rights, this will be logged in the application
eventlog. Usually if the MonitorMagic service account is a member of the local
administrators, is has sufficient rights . It is however possible that specific security
restrictions have been applied to the key by a system administrator. To check this, start
"regedt32" from the command line, and choose "security" from the menu to see the
security settings of the selected keys.
Check that the mentioned dll is in the location that is listed. If this is not the case it may
have been deleted. You should then reinstall the MonitorMagic service.

SNMP trap
When a rule of a monitor is triggered, alarm actions are executed. See Alarm actions overview for
more general information. One of the possible alarm actions is a SNMP trap. A SNMP trap is a
special SNMP Message that is send from the MonitorMagic server to specific computers on your
network that runs software (called an SNMP manager) that can interpret these messages, and
act on them if required. See Introduction SNMP traps for more general info.
In order for the SNMP traps to work, SNMP must be configured on the server that the policy
containing this alarm action is applied. see Requirements SNMP traps and Configure
MonitorMagic SNMP traps for more information.
