Verifying the SNMP Installation on a Solaris SPARC

This procedure describes the verification of your SNMP installation on a Solaris SPARC system.

Before you begin

EXS SwitchKit must be installed and the LLC and SwitchManager need to be running, with the CSP configured. Refer to the EXS SwitchKit Installation and Maintenance Guide for further information. In some instances, output from SNMP tools refers to notifications as traps.

Installation Verification on Solaris SPARC

To verify your installation, follow the steps below:

1 Verify that mib2agt and snmpdm are running. You can verify this with the following commands:

# ps -ef | grep snmp

# ps -ef | grep mib2

If mib2agt and snmpdm are not running, go to /etc/srconf/exe and use these commands:

# ./snmpdm&

# ./mib2agt&

2 Change directories and start the traprcv process with the following command:

# cd /etc/srconf/exe

# ./traprcv&

A new window appears with the following message:

# Waiting for traps

3 Verify that the environmental variables required for these processes to execute properly have been defined. Type the following command:

# env | grep SR

The command should produce the following output:

SR_MGR_CONF_DIR=/etc/srconf/mgr

SR_AGT_CONF_DIR=/etc/srconf/agt

4 If this command returns nothing, then the environmental variables are not defined. Add the following to the /etc/profile file at the end of the file:

SR_MGR_CONF_DIR=/etc/srconf/mgr

export SR_MGR_CONF_DIR

SR_AGT_CONF_DIR=/etc/srconf/agt

export SR_AGT_CONF_DIR

5 Then, log in as root again, and verify using:

env/grep/sr

6 From the same directory, /etc/srconf/exe, start the CSPAgent daemon with the following command:

# ./CSPAgent&

This command starts the process using SNMPv2c notifications as the communications protocol. If the process is successfully started, the following notifications appear in the traprcv window:

Received SNMPv2c Trap:

Community: public

From: 127.0.0.1

sysUpTime.0 = 599440

snmpTrapOID.0 = cspAgentMasterAgentConnect

Received SNMPv2c Trap:

Community: public

From: 127.0.0.1

sysUpTime.0 = 599444

snmpTrapOID.0 = cspAgentLLCConnect

7 From the same directory, /etc/srconf/exe, start the CSPEventManager daemon with the command:

# ./CSPEventManager&

This command starts the process using SNMPv2c notifications as the communications protocol. If the process is successfully started, the following notifications appear in the traprcv window:

Received SNMPv2c Trap:

Community: public

From: 127.0.0.1

sysUpTime.0 = 606971

snmpTrapOID.0 = cspEventManagerLLCConnect

Received SNMPv2c Trap:

Community: public

From: 127.0.0.1

sysUpTime.0 = 606975

snmpTrapOID.0 = cspEventManagerMasterAgentConnect

8 At the command line, type the following:

# cd /etc/srconf/exe

# ./getmany -v1 localhost public cspCardType

The response to this command should be similar to the following:

cspCardType.6.1 = dsp_one(21)

cspCardType.6.2 = t_one16_span(24)

cspCardType.6.4 = mfdsp(3)

cspCardType.6.5 = e_one16_span(25)

cspCardType.6.7 = j_one16_span(30)

cspCardType.6.9 = ss7Series3(113)

cspCardType.6.10 = ss7Series3(113)

cspCardType.6.16 = exnet_one(84)

cspCardType.6.17 = lowerFanTray(248)

cspCardType.6.19 = powerSupply(240)

cspCardType.6.20 = midplane(250)

cspCardType.6.21 = ex_cpuIO(243)

cspCardType.6.22 = ex_cpuIO(243)

cspCardType.6.33 = matrixControllerSeries3(115)

cspCardType.6.53 = e_one120ohmStandbyIO(229)

cspCardType.6.54 = e_one120ohmRedundantIO(226)

cspCardType.6.57 = ccsIOSeries3(216)

cspCardType.6.58 = ccsIOSeries3(216)

9 To stop the processes that were started up, type at the command line:

# ps-ef | grep CSP

This gives you the CSPAgent and CSPEventManager PIDs, then type:

# kill -9 <CSPAgent PID> <CSPEventManager PID>

This kills the CSPAgent and CSPEventManager processes.

Reference

You can now change the destination of the notifications, the Structure of Management Information (SMI) version of the notification sent or change the community string, see System Customization.
