6.2 SNMP support?

Hi all,

I have a 6.2 server on Sol10u2. I have enabled SNMP support as per the docs (http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2650/6n4u4dtvr?a=view). And yet whenever I try to start the SNMP subagent it eventually times out:

./start-msg snmp

Connecting to watcher ...

Starting snmp server ............................................. timeout

Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server SNMP Subagent 6.2-6.01 (built Apr 3 2006) shutting down

I know the master agent is running because I can walk it on port 16161 and see the standard values. The subagent just never seems to start and link up with it. And there's no logs for the SNMP service.

Ideas?

Thanks!

if you check the release notes, you will find that Solaris 10 and SNMP for Messaging do not work together.

Hi Jay,

Are you referring to the "Messaging Server fails to start when SNMP is enabled on Solaris 10. (6299309/6290934)" note from here?:

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2568/6n4rm7fhf?a=view

They list a workaround, but it actually makes no sense to me: how would pointing an external command line util to a different port fix things?

If you're referring to other notes, would you mind sending me a link? The URL above is all I could find in Google.

Thanks!

Actually, if you examine the admin guide for snmp:

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2650/6n4u4dtvr?q=snmp&a=view

all it talks about is Solaris 8

You're really looking at bugs:

6290934,

6299309,

6261852,

6209318,

and

6266169.

The first one is a Solaris 10 bug, the rest are fixed with current patches on Messaging. You may need to contact tech support to get access to hotfixes current enough for the fixes.
