(pls forgive me if this mail arrives doubled) Hi all.
I have couple of HP (CPQ?) Proliant boxes, and am happily running on the Debian Linux. HP provides couple of SNMP agents for linux for the hardware monitoring. However, they are Providing only for RedHat and the like. I downloaded their software, converted it to debian-style, I reached already most of the functionality, just with the HP-specific part I met difficulties. I'm not that snmp professional (yet), but trying my best. Pointing me to the right documentation is OK. These SNMP agents from HP have the disadvantegous feature(?) that their MIBs are not separately supplied, but somehow hardcoded compiled into the agents binaries. So I cannot simply add the MIB files to the mibs directory, (as written in the FAQ) but I should use definitions for the snmpd like this: 'For definitions of this CPQ.or.HP.specicific.object contact AGENTName1' I mean I can request more than a thousand objectvalues per snmp, about the sysUptime, and so on. But in the list that snmpwalk gives me about the box I don't yet see the HP specific Objects, since snmpd doesn't yet have the information about them. I am using the following version: atsrvlx04:~# dpkg -l | grep snmp ii libsnmp-base 5.1.1-2 NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol ii libsnmp-perl 5.1.1-2 NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol ii libsnmp-sessio 0.90-1 Perl support for accessing SNMP-aware device ii libsnmp5 5.1.1-2 NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol ii libsnmp5-dev 5.1.1-2 NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol ii snmp 5.1.1-2 NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol ii snmpd 5.1.1-2 NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol ii tinysnmp-tools 0.6.2 TinySNMP Utilities atsrvlx04:~# HP suggests two things: 1. use ucd-snmp. If I understand correctly, net-snmp was called so earlier. 2. compile snmpd with the '--with-dlmod' configure option. Okay, I did that. I am not quite sure, if I gave enough information for you to be able to help me on, but if not so, then by any means, pls let me know what infos you need more. any help is appreciated. regards, charlie -- Végh Károly - System Engineer - UTA - TIS.SAS.BSS "There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX.
