No sma service at Solaris 10

[yoas]

Dear all,
I have solaris 10, but no sma service installed.

Code: Select all

@:/root !ksh>> svcs -a | grep management
offline        Apr_20   svc:/application/management/snmpdx:default
offline        May_01   svc:/application/management/dmi:default

and when I view from package:

Code: Select all

@:/root !ksh>> pkginfo | grep snmp
application SMCnetsnmp                   netsnmp

but i didn't see any snmp.conf at /etc/sma/snmp/snmpd.conf. At /etc/sma/snmp/ only have 2 files:

Code: Select all

@:/etc/sma/snmp !ksh>> ls -la
total 8
drwxr-xr-x   3 root     bin          512 Sep  7  2008 .
drwxr-xr-x   3 root     bin          512 Sep  7  2008 ..
-rw-------   1 root     bin          382 Mar 29  2006 fmd-trapgen.conf
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     bin          512 Sep  7  2008 mibs
@:/etc/sma/snmp !ksh>> pwd
/etc/sma/snmp

anybody can help me how to install sma or make snmp on my OS running well? thank you..

Install net-snmp from the sun open source repository.

This is probably too late for you yoas, but hope this helps some others

Solaris10 comes with the sun version of net-snmp by default
you don't need to install it, you just need to enable it.

Create a config file (you will specify your community name here) :

Code: Select all

bash-3.00# /usr/sfw/bin/snmpconf

Turn on sma (System Management Agent)

Code: Select all

bash-3.00# svcadm enable sma

See it running (when it's not enabled, nothing will return)

Code: Select all

bash-3.00# svcs | grep sma
online          9:11:06 svc:/application/management/sma:default

Test walk the localhost

Code: Select all

bash-3.00# /usr/sfw/bin/snmpwalk -v1 -c MyCommunityName 127.0.0.1

See which modules are included

Code: Select all

-bash-3.00# /usr/sfw/bin/net-snmp-config --snmpd-module-list

Say you were looking for DiskIO you would look at these:

Code: Select all

bash-3.00# /usr/sfw/bin/snmpwalk -v1 -c MyCommunityName 127.0.0.1 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15
bash-3.00# /usr/sfw/bin/snmptable -v1 -c MyCommunityName 127.0.0.1 diskIOTable

HTH!

Solaris10 comes with the sun version of net-snmp by default
you don't need to install it, you just need to enable it.

just an FYI, its version 5.0.9 (end of lifed code) and doesn't support 64-bit counters. not sure about you, but for me it makes things difficult at best.

If you don't have sma (net-smpd that comes with Solaris) installed, you can get it working by installing these packages from the Solaris DVD:

SUNWsmaS SUNWsmagt SUNWsmcmd SUNWsmdoc SUNWsmmgr

Then disable this service:

svc:/application/management/snmpdx:default

And enable this one:

svc:/application/management/sma:default
