Question

I am trying to set up the email address of the SNMP.
i can set up the Server SNMP Agents and the trap destinations, but can't find where to specifiy the SMTP Server Name i.e our company email address name [email protected]
I looked in security realms can't find it.
Any ideas

Hi,
Here is sample setup for AIX machine.
SETUP:
GC agent installed in AGENT_ORACLE_HOME
RDBMS installed in RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME
Database and listener up and running, monitored by Grid Control,
this implies that the AGENT_ORACLE_HOME/sysman/emd/targets.xml contains the correct credentials for the database.
The listener name given ion RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora is identical to the name of that listener target in Grid Control.
AGENT_ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/sqlnet.ora must exist.
SETUP steps needed for operating system AIX:
A. AIX is using its native snmp deamon pointing to the snmpdv3 deamon (this is the default on AIX5L):
[hostname]/root> ls -l /usr/sbin/snmpd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 9 Jul 24 2009 /usr/sbin/snmpd@ -> snmpdv3ne*
B. The script AGENT_ORACLE_HOME/network/snmp/peer/start_peer has needs to be corrected on AIX :
1. the locations of "whoami" needs to be corrected from "/usr/ucb/whoami" to "/bin/whoami"
2. the command starting the os snmp deamon must be changed to
$SNMPD $SNMPD_OPTIONS -p $NEW_SNMPD_PORT >snmpd.out 2>&1 &
Alternatively add two blocks for operating system AIX:
elif [ "$uname" = "AIX" ] ; then
USERID=`/bin/whoami`
SNMPD=/usr/sbin/snmpd
SNMPD_CONFIG=/etc/snmpdv3.conf
SNMPD_OPTIONS=""
BP="AIX"
TRPCMD="exit 1"
ENCAP_OPT="-s 1160"
elif [ "$uname" = "AIX" ]
then
echo "Starting $SNMPD ..."
echo "$SNMPD $SNMPD_OPTIONS -p $NEW_SNMPD_PORT >snmpd.out 2>&1 &"
$SNMPD $SNMPD_OPTIONS -p $NEW_SNMPD_PORT >snmpd.out 2>&1 &
Starting up emsubagent
None of the following processes must be upp and running: snmpd, emsubagent, master_peer, encaps_peer
The following ports must not be allocated: snmp, smux, 161, 1161, 199
run as root:
ORACLE_HOME= <full path to the AGENT_ORACLE_HOME>
export ORACLE_HOME
$ORACLE_HOME/network/snmp/peer/start_peer -a
This must start the following processes as root: master_peer, encaps_peer, snmpd
As agent ORACLE_HOME owner run
AGENT_ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start subagent
The snmp_*.ora files needs to be copied from AGENT_ORACLE_HOME/network/admin to RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
Restart the listener, query the listener status
"RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl status <listener_name>" must show: SNMP ON
