Peter, Thanks for raising this.
I think the documentation has an omission - you must install clearwater-snmpd on all nodes. (I suspect Sprout is working because Chronos, on which it depends, in turn depends on clearwater-snmpd, but Homestead and Bono do not depend on Chronos.) Note that we use clearwater-snmpd (a Clearwater fork of snmpd) rather than vanilla snmpd because this includes a fix that has yet to be accepted upstream. Installing clearwater-snmpd should resolve the logs you're seeing - Bono and Homestead are trying to connect to snmpd, but it's not installed. Incidentally, you shouldn't need any "clearwater-snmp-handler-*" packages apart from for Astaire - we've switched most components to use a different infrastructure that doesn't require these handlers, but Astaire is still pending this change. Please let me know if installing clearwater-snmpd resolves your problems and we'll get the docs updated (or investigate more if not).

I am running a manual install of bono/sprout/homestead/ibcf/dns with release 89 “Vicomte de Bragelonne”. As per the instructions in “http://clearwater.readthedocs.org/en/latest/Clearwater_SNMP_Statistics/index.html”, I have run “sudo apt-get install clearwater-snmp-handler-astaire” on the Sprout node only. Specifically, the instructions state “These SNMP statistics require: the clearwater-snmp-handler-astaire packages to be installed for Sprout and Ralf nodes”. But what about the other IMS nodes? Is there no other action required to activate snmp statistics for bono and homestead nodes? Surely they require a snmp daemon to be running? There is no snmpd entry in “ps –ef”, and no /etc/snmp directory, on my bono or homestead nodes, but there is on the sprout node. Also, the log files for bono and homestead show continuous entries of… UTC Warning (Net-SNMP): Warning: Failed to connect to the agentx master agent ([NIL]): Does that mean that snmp is not set up correctly in those nodes? Is the documentation incorrect when it says to install the packages only on the sprout node? Or, in my case, do I need to do “sudo apt-get install snmpd” on my bono and homestead nodes? Should the documentation state that? Any guidance would be most appreciated. Regards, Peter.
