SNMP on Solaris 10

Hi Experts,
Ive got a T1000 server installed with Sun� SNMP Management Agent for Sun Fire� and Netra� and SMA. The client has requested to generate some not harmful test traps from the server. I tried this by unplugging an ethernet interface or by unplugging one of the redundant power supplies hoping to see traps containing detailed information about these events. But all i got on my node manager (HP Open View) was traps like these:
Indicates that attribute identified by sunPlatNotificationChangedOID
has changed from the value in sunPlatNotificationOldInteger to the value in sunPlatNotificationNewInteger.
This is as defined in X.721, sec. 13.1.3\%X07D8060B0A3213002D0500\{ 1 3 6 1 2 1 47 1 1 1 1 2 29 }\""\{ 1 3 6 1 4 1 42 2 70 101 1 1 12 1 2 29 }\2\1
I also tried monitoring the traps by using the command snmptrapd -P. Also got the traps but still with no detailed information about the events.
As you can see there is no detailed info about the generated events.
Am i missing something or its just that simple as the product works like this?
Maybe there are some others not harmful traps for the server with detailed information that i can test?
Thanks in advance.

I could use some help with this as well ... so far I have been unable to find a clear and concise document that can walk me through configurin gSNMP. Clean Solaris 10 installation, snmpdx is running - now how do I configure it? Better yet, how do I disable snmpdx and run net-snmp?
Please, someone help or at least paste a link to an article somewhere...

Which version of SNMP does Solaris come with

I've been tasked to do an audit of our environment and see which version of SNMP our servers are running so that we can look at where we are before we try to upgrade to SNMP Version 3.
How do I check which version of SNMP a Solaris system is running?
Thanks,
T

Not sure which SNMP agent you're running, but I'll take a guess that you're using Net-SNMP 5.x .
You can determine this by:
(Solaris 10) /usr/sfw/bin/snmpd -v
or possibly:
/usr/local/bin/snmpd -v
Net-SNMP 5.x agents are capable of answering queries from SNMP verions 1, 2c, and 3. Keep in mind, an EngineID and SNMPv3 user must be configured before SNMP 3 wil work. For more info on this see "man snmpd.conf" and/or the Net-SNMP FAQ: http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/FAQ.html (scroll to the AGENT section)

SNMP on SOLARIS 9

Hi guys...
I need to install SNMP daemon on a SOLARIS 9, that have a Check Point firewall running.
How it�s do?
thx.
loop.-

personally, I prefer the Net-SNMP snmpd. A lot less package requirements, integrates nicely with Perl5.8, cross platform, and
provides almost all the same features as the Sun one. On netras I do trap forwarding to the Sun Netra Management agent for extended 'IPMI' (platform) info about the server management base and FRUs.

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.

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?

JVM Hotspot compiler crashed

Hello,
The JVM crashed in one of our Solaris production environments. The cause of the crash appears to be the HotSpot compiler. It seems that the JVM was trying to compile frequently used code and then it crashed. I have checked the forums and I found one other message with the same Internal Error ID. However, in that message, it is suggested that the JVM itself is running out of C malloc space (http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=37&threadID=5127551).
I have verified that the JVM was not running out of memory when it crashed. There was over 9 GB of swap and physical memory available to the JVM when the crash happened.
Below are the contents of the hs_err_pid file.
# An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:

Solstice agent - other agents

Hi all,
As being new to SNMP and Solaris, I think I have a fairly easy question for you guys.
We're currently running Solaris 9 on V440 and V420 boxes.
I'll have to perform some monitoring on these and SNMP drawed my attention.
But on the system curently only the SUNWsasm package is installed and running (Solstice enterprise agent) A simple snmpwalk could not be performed. Is this package enough or....
In the Sun SNMP manager agent Admin guide for Sun Fire v420 and 440 I found nevertheless other packages which should be installed:
SUNWmasf, SUNWmasfr + the commom config reader for the V440 and 420).
Thanks for the help; which is very much appreciated.
best regards,

Hi Rick, thanks for your interest
What's different about this "empty agent"? It doesn't have a pernr?
No, it does not have a pernr nor anything else. Whenever you access to the responsible agents list popup from the workflow log, there are as many entries as pernrs, and additionally, this empty line on top, but just sometimes
How is the role returning this list of pernrs? Could it be that
there's a programming error there? Could you change it to check
for this empty agent and remove it before it gets passed to the workflow?
I have rechecked the role outside the workflow and it never returns an empty row. To me, it looks like it happens something once the role has been executed, so a "empty object" is added to the list of possible agents.
However, If the problem persists and we do not find the root, I will modify the role to delete any possible empty rows, just in case. Thanks for the tip

Multicore monitoring using snmpget

Hi All,
Does any one have implemented multicore monitoring using net-snmp in solaris 10?
I found the following OID ".1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2"
snmptranslate -Td -On .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2
hrProcessorLoad OBJECT-TYPE
-- FROM HOST-RESOURCES-MIB
SYNTAX Integer32 (0..100)
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION "The average, over the last minute, of the percentage
of time that this processor was not idle.
Implementations may approximate this one minute
smoothing period if necessary."
but when I request info with snmpwalk
snmpwalk -v2c -O fu -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2
I get the following errors:
host.hrDevice.hrProcessorTable.hrProcessorEntry.hrProcessorLoad = No Such Instance currently exists at this OID.
The machine is running: NET-SNMP version: 5.0.9

Thanks to CACTUS mailing list.
The answer is that net-snmp does not currently support multicore. Maybe in release 5.4 the multicore will be available.

280r and V440 Mibs

Hello All,
I am new to Sun and Unix and I need help with obtaining Mibs for SNMP monitoring. I have two 280r's and a v440. I want to be able to monitor CPU proformance, Memory utilization, Storage and Interface proformance. Can some one help me with getting these mibs?
Chris

I would not worry about any of the standard Sun SNMP stuff. You could use SunMC (which has no licencing limits anymore as long as you dont want support then you have to pay) or even better Net-SNMP. Solaris 10 has it as standard and it gives all sorts of good stuff. I recommend it.

SNMP ifindex in Solaris 10

Can anyone tell me how I can nail down the SNMP ifmib ifindex table on a Solaris 10 server? Every time the server guys add a subintderface, I have to reconfigure my PRTG and Spectrum models, and it's getting tedious. I cannot believe there is no way to nail down e1000g0=#2, e1000g1=#3, etc.
Thanks in advance.

it should be possible to define the "index" in each /etc/hostname. file
I have never done this, but when the system boots it reads the content of these files and passes them to "ifconfig" to configure the NICs

SNMP traps from Solaris 10

Hi,
I'm trying very hard to set up a Sun Fire V245 to send SNMP traps when certain hardware or software related events occur. I've been looking at sma_snmp (net-snmp) and the Fault Management Daemon (SUNWfmd) but they seem to be very limited in their capabilities. I have manged to get some traps sent for filesystem fill-ups and high load averages but that is about it.
Most of all I would like the system to send traps when there is a HW failure such as a faulty FRU or if there are disk failures.
If anyone can point me to some documentation about this, I would be most grateful.

Mikael,
I struggled through the same thing with a Netra 240 recently. The Sun docs are garbage when it comes to this. I opened a ticket with Sun and after 3 days and 6 hours on the phone I finally got hold of someone who knew how to spell SNMP. Yes, it was that bad!
Here's the scoop. In Solaris 10 you run Net-SNMP, a.k.a. SMA, snmpd. The old snmpdx is obsoleted and you shouldn't configure it at all.
Now to get the hardware related traps for the Sunfire and Netra series servers... (what you are really looking for).
You have to load and configure an additional SNMP daemon for the hardware specific traps.
(The first doc is rather old, the last one 819-7978-12 is pretty new and is somewhat more relevant.)
Sun� SNMP Management Agent for Sun Fire� and Netra� Systems: Sun Doc number 817-2559-13
Sun� SNMP Management Agent Addendum for the Netra� 240 Server: Sun Doc Number 817-6238-10
Sun� SNMP Management Agent Administration Guide for Sun Blade� /Sun Fire�/Sun SPARC� Enterprise/Netra� Servers: Sun Doc Number 819-7978-12
And finally the SMA/net-snmp/snmpd guide for the standard Solaris related traps:
Solaris System Management Agent Administration Guide: Sun Doc Number 817�3000�11
There are problems with all of the above documents. None of the Netra/Sunfire docs specifically talk about Solaris 10 so read them with caution. They also talk about configuring and running snmpdx and never reference SMA/net-snmp. This is odd because the instructions I got from Sun (finally) were not to run snmpdx, only to run sma/snmpd and additionally run the sunfire/netra snmpd agent.
The SMA document (817-3000-11) has an undocumented bug, which Sun knows about and is working on but will not reveal to the public. In the section titled "Migration From the Sun Fire Management Agent" it references using a script called masfcnv to convert the sunfire/netra specific snmp config and daemon to work with and through SMA. Since they all use the same ports (161/162) there is some conflict and the masfcnv is script is meant to resolve this by making sma/snmpd a proxy agent to requests toward the sunfire/netra specific hardware daemon.
The problem is the masfcnv script doesn't work properly. In fact, if you run the script you will destroy your other snmp configurations and may have to uninstall and reinstall the packages to clean everything up. This script hasn't ever worked and Sun is working on a fix but they neglect to mention this in the document which is IMO gross negligence and is a reflection of Sun's overall state of affairs (but that's another ranting thread).
So what you must do is configure SMA/net-snmp (or whatever you want to call it), and also configure the sunfire/netra specific snmp (after downloading and installing that package).
Since traps are sent to the remote trapsink using destination port 162, both net-snmp and the netra specific snmp daemons can co-exist here (port 162 is not an open listening port on the machine).
Port 161 is used for receiving SNMP Get requests and can only be bound to one daemon at a time. So either it is used by net-snmp or the netra snmp daemon, but not both. Since my boxes have not been fully integrated still I can't figure out which daemon 161 is bound to. At any rate, in my application the customer is only interested in receiving traps so the outcome here isn't that important.
I realize this isn't complete but I'm no expert here and haven't worked through all the test scenarios on a fully configured system. Hopefully though this will help clear some of the confusion propogated through Sun's stupid documents. Good luck!

Snmp trap on solaris 10

Hi,
how can i make my Solaris 10 generate SNMP trap on specific event?
like high CPU,Load or lack of disk space ?
thanks
