If all you need is monitoring, libvirt-snmp should be happy to use a
read-only connection to libvirt, which is kept open by default.

If this is impossible, I suggest to file a bug on libvirt-snmp.

If you trust libvirt-snmp and zabbix not modify VM state, you can
replace "sasl" with "none", and restart libvirt, supervdsm and vdsm.

Hi Dan, 

I want to monitor my oVirt infrastructure with Zabbix. I found a zabbix 
template , but it needs to modifiy libirtd.conf to enable libvirt-snmp to 
access VM informations (https://github.com/jensdepuydt/zabbix-ovirt).

Would you share your use case for libvirt-snmp?

The supposed danger is that whatever uses snmp may modify VM state under
the feet of oVirt and surprise it.

Hi Kevin,


you should not change auth_unix_rw=sasl. I never used libvirt-snmp but it
is save to create another user like this:

> saslpasswd2 -a libvirt 

I did that several times on my hosts.

[ovirt-users] oVirt monitoring with libirt-snmp

[Kevin COUSIN]

Hi list,

Is it safe to edit /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf? I need to change 
auth_unix_rw="sasl" because I want to allow libvirt-snmp to acess to VM 
informations. Perhaps I need to create a user in sasl instead ?

Thanks a lot
