Re: snmp questions




I've noticed my Aix5L servers run hostmibd along with snmpd (dpid2 is inactive on all) so my guess is the hostmibd daemon is providing the extra information. However I don't have a hostmibd executable available on my 4.3.3 servers and it appears it is not a separate fileset but part of the bos.net.tcp.client fileset.
So unless there is an updated bos.net.tcp.client for my 4.3.3 servers it looks like I would have to investigate net-snmp instead?

Anyone have any tips on configuring snmp on Aix.
We have an snmp management station setup and by just providing it with the ip_address of my servers I can get lots of node details like logical volumes and load average statistics. This seems to be the case with the Aix 5.x servers only though.

On the 4.3.3 servers I can only discover the network adapters.

If I check the /etc/snmpd.conf file they seem to be using the same default config.

What might I be missing on the 4.3.3 servers?

Actually snmp agent capabilities were changed in migration from 4.3 to 5
there is a few good tips in "AIX farms" redbook (if I remember title
corectly)

I hope this helps
