Hi all,
I am using Fedora 7 (F7) on DELL PowerEdge 860 with OMSA 5.2
Thanks to this mailing list, I have done all below.
1. wget http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/bootstrap.cgi
2. Modify bootstrap.cgi
3. ./bootstrap.cgi
4. Modify /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/dellsysidplugin.conf
5. getSystemId
6. Modify /etc/yum.repos.d/dell-hw-specific-repository.repo
6a ??? yum install net-snmp
7. yum install srvadmin-all
8. srvadmin-services.sh start
9. Access https://Fedora7Box:1311 no problem
10. Set ITAssistant server IP address and community name on
https://Fedora7Box:1311
However, my ITAssistant server was not able to detect the Fedora 7 Box.
It appears there must be something wrong with my SNMP set up.
Here is the result of # ps auxw | grep snmp
root 3942 0.0 0.0 10256 1704 ? Ss 11:58 0:00
snmptrapd
root 4785 0.5 0.1 48020 3076 ? Ssl 13:20 0:24
/opt/dell/srvadmin/dataeng/bin/dsm_sa_snmp32d
root 4977 0.0 0.0 4008 708 pts/0 S+ 14:30 0:00 grep
snmp
I have got a few questions about SNMP setup for the LINUX box.
Q1. Do I need to install/start net-snmp at all?
It appears I am duplicating snmp because net-snmp was not able to
start/stop properly while dsm_sa_snmp32d is already started.
# service snmpd stop
Stopping snmpd: [FAILED]
# service snmpd start
Starting snmpd: [ OK ]
# service snmpd status
snmpd dead but subsys locked
Q2. Do I need to install/start snmptrapd at all?
Q3. I saw there are many articles on the Internet that mention about
modifying snmpd.conf to change the community name in order to get DELL
ITAssistant to detect the server.
Is this procedure really required since I have already set this up
in DELL OMSA online?
Has anyone encountered this problem before?
Thanks.
