Hello,
I need to know if the SunMC 3.5 Update 1b agent is supported by a server SUN V20Z (based on a AMD Opteron processor) on a SOLARIS 10. I can't find this information in any Sun documentation.
My problem is that the agent seems to be well-installed, but when it's started, the ports 161, 162 etc. are not in the state "listening" on the server.
Thanks for your help.

SunMC 3.5.1a and later support any platform running Solaris 10 x86 (http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-1989/6n4ae1pqk?a=view), although you don't see any special modules for their hardware until 3.6 (and then only if you're running N1SM: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-7958/6mn891ldq?a=view)

Agents don't use port 162, only 161 (the SunMC Server is a different matter) ... and even then on any recent version of Solaris port 161 is taken by another process out-of-the-box.
So, are you sure the Agent is running? The process will be called "esd - init agent" in a ps listing.
And are you sure it's trying to use port 161? You can look in it's configuration file (/var/opt/SUNWsymon/cfg/domain-config.x) in the "agent = { ... }" section for the port:
agent = {
....
snmpPort = "XXXX"
....
}

Thank you for replying.
I can confirm that the agent is running correctly ("esd - init agent" can be seen with the "ps" command).
The configuration file "/var/opt/SUNWsymon/cfg/domain-config.x" seems configured correctly, with the "snmpPort" parameter set to "1161". But with the command netstat -na, I can see that anything is listening on this port. A "kill" and a "start" of the agent don't change anything.
