Hi All,

I have installed SNMP on the RHEL agent .When i did configure and repair,sending test trap also worked fine .

But Agent status not showing SNMP status in CMS ..! What may be the reason?

Minimum RPMs are (AFAIK) 'hp-health' and 'hp-snmp-agents'.

You can get them from this nice HP repo: http://downloads.linux.hp.com/SDR/downloads/ProLiantSupportPack/

Thanks .

Is there any difference between net-snmp-agents and hp-snmp-agents?

We can install snmp agents after adding the server or snmp agents must be there to add the server to collection?

hp-snmp-agents RPM plugs into the regular snmp daemon so more hardware specific information can be queried by tools like SIM.

Yes you can install hp-snmp-agents after the system has been discovered in SIM. The next time 'Identify System' is being run it should automatically add all the additional information.

You'll find the Support for Solaris 10 here:
