Net-SNMP 5.0.9 used in Solaris 10 sma

We are using AgentX protocol in an application sub-agent
According to Net-SNMP change log, AgentX protocol support was experimental up to release 5.0.7 but going to the following link:
http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/tutorial-5/toolkit/demon/index.html
"The AgentX support in net-snmp versions prior to 5.1 is beta level quality. Although many people have used it successfully, we strongly recommend AgentX sub-agent developers use 5.1.2 or higher."
Why is the Net-SNMP version so low in the Solaris 10 sma build? Cureent version is 5.3.0.1

Hello.
I would also like to know how to upgrade the version of net-snmp that the System Management Agent uses so that I can monitor servers with more than one CPU.
Any guidance much appreciated.
Thanks

Building Net-SNMP with gcc and Solaris 10's Forte-built Perl

The 5.0.9 Net-SNMP that come with Solaris SPARC is too old for our users. Building the latest version appears to be basically impossible and I'm just about to bail and just build yet another version of Perl for Solaris 10 so it will work. But on the chance that someone has done this:
I am trying to build Net-SNMP 5.4.1.2 with the Sunfreeware gcc. The configure script seems to ignore the --disable-perl-cc-checks flag:
./configure with-perl-modules disable-perl-cc-checks
configure: error: This build is using a GNU C compiler (gcc) while Perl has been compiled with a non-GNU (or non-working) compiler (cc). This likely won't work for building with Perl support. Either specify a different compiler (--with-cc=PATH), disable this check (--disable-perl-cc-checks) or build without Perl (--without-perl-modules).
Has anyone successfully done this? I was hoping to get a successful configure run, then build the binaries, and then further tweak the perl makefiles with "GCC=/usr/perl5/5.8.4/bin/perlgcc" or something.

configure: error: This build is using a GNU C compiler (gcc) while Perl has been compiled with a non-GNU (or non-working) compiler (cc). This likely won't work for building with Perl support. Either specify a different compiler (--with-cc=PATH), disable this check (--disable-perl-cc-checks) or build without Perl (--without-perl-modules).The perl supplied by Sun should be compiled with Sun Studio and the error mentioned above seems to reflect this.
So, either build perl first with sunfreeware's gcc and then move on to net-snmp or install and use Sun Studio instead of gcc so perl is happy.

Solaris 10 SMA is dumping core. Have you installed net-snmp?

It's only happening on afew of the many sparc Solaris 10 servers I support. Oracle no longer supports SMA and has suggested downloading and installing "publicly available 'net-snmp' software". I'm reluctant to download and install open source; the review and approval process in my environment is onerous.
Since net-snmp is bundled with Solaris 11, I'm wondering if it is possible to install Solaris 11 packages on a Solaris 10 server (and net-snmp in particular). If so, perhaps someone can provide tips?

The package formats are not the same between these both release of Solaris. You can still trying to extract the files and then install it in your Solaris 10 machine but this is highly unrecommended and of course unsupported. And I'm not sure that it will work.

Cannot get net-snmp to start!!!

Newbie question...
I have installed net-snmp on a V880 running Solaris 9. The install appeared to complete without issue. However, when I attempt to start snmp, I get the following...
bash-2.05# /etc/init.d/init.snmpdx start
bash-2.05# ./snmpd -f -L
[init_smux] bind failed: Address already in use
Error opening specified endpoint "udp:161"
Server Exiting with code 1
ps -ef confirmes that net-snmp is the only version of snmp running on this machine...
bash-2.05# ps -ef | grep snmp
root 27603 1 0 10:57:29 ? 0:00 /usr/local/sbin/snmpd
root 3953 27727 0 11:01:41 pts/3 0:00 grep snmp
I don't think that there is anything else occupying this port...
bash-2.05# lsof -i udp:161
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
snmpd 27603 root 18u IPv4 0x30a267379c0 0t0 UDP *:161 (Idle)
and snmp seems to be reading in the correct config files...

read_config: Reading configuration /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf
read_config: Reading configuration /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf
I am a beginner, so please be merciful...but I would appreciate any advice as to what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks in advance...

Net-Snmp,. Agent X Java Sanity check

I'm porting an old company app from Sol 9 to Sol 10. Previously, we shipped our own copy of Net-Snmp with a Java based sub-agent using agentx over port 705.
Solaris 10 ships with it's own copy of net-snmp so I figured we would just use that. From what I can tell however:
Solaris 10's Net-SNMP requires Unix Domain Sockets for Agentx
Java doesn't supprt Unix Domain Sockets
Therefore, no Java subagents for Solaris 10's Net-SNMP.
Is this true?
Thanks,
mike

Hi,
I just recollected that if the SNMP agent is not able to bind to the originally configured port (161 in your case), it tries to bind to the next 10 ports in a sequence. Thats how it is complaining about 171.
Make sure the port you have configured is open. Easiest way to check is to allocate one of the ports near the WebLogic console HTTP ports (not the ones currently used)

Running net-snmp as a subagent.

I am trying to setup net-snmp or ucd-snmp as a subagent through SunMC. I followed the instructions from the Sunmc 3.6.1 installation and configuration guide for modifying the subagent-registry-d.x file and put the following entry:
netsnmp = {
type = legacy
persist = false
snmpPort = "20161"
errorAction = restart
startCommand = "/export/home/xxx/crap.sh -p %port"
stopCommand = "kill -9 %pid"
pollInterval = 60
pollHoldoff = 60
managedTrees = "ucdavis"
oidTrees = 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021
snmpVersion = SNMPv1
securityLevel = auth
securityName = LALA
the startup script crap.sh contains the following line:
/export/home/xxx/snmpd -c /export/home/xxx/snmpd.conf -p 20161
When I run a ctail on /var/opt/SUNWsymon/log/agent.log I get the following (removing all lines not assocaited with subagent calls)
info Feb 06 11:17:39 agent subagent registry successfully loaded
info Feb 06 11:17:39 agent startLegacySubagents: <>
info Feb 06 11:17:39 agent startLegacySubagent: netsnmp
info Feb 06 11:17:39 agent sh: Executing /export/home/psopel/crap.sh -p 20161 process 11859
warning Feb 06 11:17:44 agent Failed to start legacy subagent netsnmp
I am able to snmpwalk from another server on port 20161 so I see the net-snmp agent is responding as per the following ouput:
snmpwalk srvname:20161 -c LALA -v 1 .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssIndex.0 = INTEGER: 1
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssErrorName.0 = STRING: systemStats
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssSwapIn.0 = INTEGER: 0
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssSwapOut.0 = INTEGER: 0
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssIOSent.0 = INTEGER: 0
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssIOReceive.0 = INTEGER: 0
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssSysInterrupts.0 = INTEGER: 67
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssSysContext.0 = INTEGER: 48
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuUser.0 = INTEGER: 0
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuSystem.0 = INTEGER: 1
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuIdle.0 = INTEGER: 98
But when I try to launch the command through talking to sunmc on port 161 I get:
snmpwalk srvname -c LALA -v 1 .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11
End of MIB
A tail of the Agent.log file again shows this line appearing when I launch an snmpwalk:
info Feb 06 11:40:45 agent getValuePDU: .iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises
info Feb 06 11:40:45 agent getValuePDU: - nodeType is branch
My understanding is that sunmc should receive the request on port 161 and sending the request to the external net-snmp running on the server. I am expecting to get the same output.
Is this not how it should be working?

Hello Dave,
I know it is long ago for you, but at the moment I have the same problem that you had in Jan. 2002, and possibly you have solved it meanwhile, or anyone else:
I am looking for a servlet engine for Windows Mobile 2003.
We are having a Web application for sales people that sell insurances. The application consists of JSP's and servlets. It runs under RESIN as servlet engine on a regular server and the clients are desktop PC's. My task is to investigate whether the application can be run on an HP iPAQ or similar device, both, server and client, such that the sales person can use it on the go, if he is NOT CONNECTED. The idea is to use the application as is, without modifying the code. B.T.W. a database is not required since all data is held in XML files.
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks a lot,
Regards,
Klaus.

Compile new version on net-snmp.

Hello
i would like to know if it possible to compile; install a new version to net-snmp in solaris 10. there is already one version running with svc:/application/management/sma:default
how can i compile a new version and replace this one, (smf manifest, etc) do i just edit the sma.xml and point it to the new executable in <exec_method..?
the compiled version would run in /usr/local.
thank you very much for your input.
Mario G.

It's preferable to just install it to a new location and then create a new xml file for it.
Then import the manifest file and disable the one that ships with Solaris.
The rationale is that if anything happens to the system then Sun can't point a finger in your direction.

Hi groberts619,
Unfortunately the software you obtain from the Printer Software Update doesn't include the HP Scan application - only the print and scan drivers. I just checked on your product and it doesn't appear that there are plans to release an updated HP Scan installer for this model.
On Mavericks it seems your best option will be to use Apple's Image Capture scan application. You can find this application in the /Applications folder. You also have the option to scan using Preview. Look in the File menu for the command to import from a scanner.

I'm sorry, maybe the SNMP is not supported in NI production now.

Net-snmp

I have solaris 9 x86 and I downloaded net-snmp from sunfreeware and i install it in /usr/local.
I configured /etc/snmp/conf/snmpd.conf :
sysdescr Sun SNMP Agent :
syscontact xxxxxx
syslocation xxxxxx
system read-comunity public
read-comunity public
manager localhost
I did :
/etc/init.d/init.dmi stop
/etc/init.d/snmpdx stop
/usr/lib/snmp/mibiisa stop
etc/init.d/init.dmi start
/etc/init.d/snmpdx start
/usr/lib/snmp/mibiisa start
I have /usr/local/bin in my path and when i do snmpwalk localhost or snmpwalk 192.x.x.x in my local network i always get snmpwalk:Timeout
Can someone help me to explain me how to setup net-snmp on solaris x86 step by step
Thanks

I don't have access to a solaris 9 x86 system but perhaps the problem is your misspelling of community in the system read-comunity<sic> and read-comunity<sic> fields in the snmpd.conf file?

Net-SNMP scripting (Perl)

If there are any network managers who write Net-SNMP scripts, do you
install extra Perl modules? I'm not sure if I'm using the correct module
(simply SNMP), but I can't figure out the SNMP commands: "Undefined
subroutine &main:: ...." I've tried
&snmp::
I am trying to getnext in a table: e.g., ifSpeed. I have a schoolbook
that says use the SNMP_util module, but the book is old. I installed
perl-net-snmp, but I haven't restarted anything.

OEL 5.9: Effect of removing net-snmp to kernal

Hi,
I have situation where i have to install custom rpms for net-snmp.
What will happen or what ll be the effect of removing the net-snmp,net-snmp-utils and net-snmp-perl rpms from the system forcefully?
I see a dependency to oracle-linux kernal rpms.
Please help me in this regards
Thanks in advance
Kushal

I have situation where i have to install custom rpms for net-snmp.Why? How are the distribution RPM packages deficient?
What will happen or what ll be the effect of removing the net-snmp,net-snmp-utils and net-snmp-perl rpms from the system forcefully?
I see a dependency to oracle-linux kernal rpms.The oracle-linux RPM lists these as requirements; that is not the kernel. So, whatever you do with the net utils, you won't hurt the kernel; you may just disable your SNMP support.
Any approach that mentions "--force" is automatically suspect. You can only use the "--force" switch once in your career; are you sure this is the time? :)
So if you want to use your own RPM packages they should have higher revision number than your currently-installed packages, so they should just update normally.
What am I missing?

Need guidance on using ddi_regs_map_setup solaris system call

Hi all,
Am a beginner in using Sun Solaris.
I am working on porting our source code from linux to solaris.
In Linux we are using inb/outb to read/write to keyboard data port(0x60) .
I know that there is an equivalent system call for inb/outb in solaris. But in man page(of sun os) it is mentioned that inb/ outb are obsolete. It was mentioned that we can use ddi_get8/ddi_put8 functions respectively.
ddi_get8 call requires ddi_acc_handle_t as a parameter which we can get it from ddi_regs_map_setup system call.
Syntax for this call is:
int ddi_regs_map_setup(dev_info_t *dip, uint_t rnumber,
caddr_t *addrp, offset_t offset, offset_t len,
ddi_device_acc_attr_t accattrp, ddi_acc_handle_t handlep);
Please let me know where does the 0x60 port number fits in the above system call and what does these parameters rnumber, offset, len corresponds to ?

Hi,
The Fault_PC 0x13575e8 tells you exactly where you
die. I assume you have used this in mdb on
the core file to find you are dying in the ddi_get8 call?
Are you checking return value of ddi_regs_map_setup?
Are you sure the register you are accessing is in register set 1?
Are there other places prior to the panic where
the ddi_get/ddi_put routines work correctly? A bus error
here generally means the location you are trying to access
does not exist on the device. (It could also be alignment,
but not with ddi_get8). The address
looks like 1fe.02001400, which looks like a possibly
valid address in I/O space.
I would print the value of wc->ioaddr to make sure
it is a valid virtual address.
Hi,
I'm in the middle of porting a device driver for a
PCI card from linux to solaris (it's wcfxo from
zaptel - part of asterisk).

works fine, so I'm happy it's not a hardware
problem.
Any suggestions on what might be causing this?

Upgrade agent using agentDownload.solaris -u

Hello,
Has anyone being able to upgrade the OEM agent from version 10.2.0.1.0 to 10.2.0.2.0
using agentDownload.solaris script and the -u option?
OMS version is 10.2.0.1.0
The command I ran was
./agentDownload.solaris -b $AGENT_HOME -o $OLD_AGENT_HOME -u
./agentDownload.solaris -b /opt/oracle/10Agent -o /opt/oracle/10Agent -u
Then it fails at
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /tmp/OraInstall2007-05-28_09-47-38PM/jre/1.4.2/bin/java. Please wait...
Completed with Status=255
I have used the agentDownload script to install 10.2.0.1.0 in the past.

You need to apply the 10202 agent patch on 10202 agent oh
-u option use if u want to upgrade 10.1.0.X-->10.2.0.X
