An hpicfSelfTestTrap indicates that the agent has detected a non-critical failure. The value of the hpicfSelfTestResultText object describing the failure is sent in the trap. Note that this trap is sent whenever a new failure is detected. An agent should throttle the generation of consecutive hpicfSelfTestTraps so that there is at least a five-second gap between traps of this type. When traps are throttled, they are dropped, not queued for sending at a future time. (Note that 'generating' a trap means sending to all configured recipients.).
