Hello
James,
i had
verify and snmpd.conf and xnmsnmpconf and identical for both
server.
however,
when i
try snmpget command on both server i get 2 differents response
:
1-
production server :
system.sysDescr.0 : DISPLAY
STRING- (ascii): IBM PowerPC CHRP Computer Machine Type: 0x0800004c
Processor id: 0003563F4C00 Base Operating System Runtime AIX version:
05.02.0000.0030 TCP/IP Client Support version:
05.02.0000.0030 system.sysUpTime.0 : Timeticks: (518086489) 59 days,
23:07:44.89
2- pre-production server :
Issue
xnmsnmpconf and verify that either the global default community name is the same
as the read community name in /etc/snmpd.conf or that there is a specific entry
for the NetView box itself which has the correct community name
specified.
Then issue
(1) stopsrc -s snmpd
(2) ps -ef | grep snmpd (to verify that
it is down) (3) startsrc -s snmpd
(4) ps -ef | grep snmpd (to
verify that it is up) (5) ovstart
netmon

netmon needs to be
configured with the appropriate SNMP community name to be able to talk to the
snmpd agent that resides on the same box as itself.
The global default community name
within NetView's SNMP Configuration panel and the loopback community name in
snmpd.conf need to be the same. OR If not
the global default, then you need to have an entry (such as a specific entry) in
NetView's SNMP Configuration for the NetView host box where its community
name matches the community name in the snmpd.conf file.

Hello all,
i got a error when
i copy the /usr/OV/conf dir. from my production server
to my pre-production netview server when i ovstart my pre-
production server i got this
:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
object manager name: netmon
behavior:
OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
state: FAILED
PID: 31714
last message: Can't talk to snmpd; see
/usr/OV/log/netmon.trace for info
exit status: -
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
Cannot communicate with SNMP Agent
via loopback address (127.0.0.1); it is either not running or has been
configured with a community name different from that configured into Tivoli
NetView for this system. If a community name has been configured into the
SNMP Agent, that community name must be configured via xnmsnmpconf and
/usr/OV/conf/ovsnmp.conf for address 127.0.0.1 as well as for the hostname or
IP address of this system. Or, the /usr/OV/conf/snmpmib and
/usr/OV/conf/snmpmib.bin files are corrupted and need to be rebuilt using
the Maintain->Rebuild MIB binary file with installation MIB
defaults option in NetView configuration menu
any idea what can be wrong ?
thanks Dominic
