SMH Shows Almost no info.

[michael.breton]

I'm running a Zabbix server and loading net-snmp on a variety of machines with hp-health, hp-snmp-agents, hpsmh in recent releases. I am able to snmpget from the hosts, however when I visit port 2381 with my browser I see very little information. I thought it might be a software release issue and upgraded same result. The successful snmpgets tell me that snmp is working. What v2c community string does smh use to obtain info from the localhost?

If you only installed the SMH, that would explain it. The SMH is simply a user interface; you need the drivers and agents or providers to feed the data. Start with the ProLiant Support Pack and go from there.

If you installed the PSP and still no data, your problem is almost 100% related to SNMP config.

I installed hp-health, hp-snmp-agents, net-snmp (installed with server build) I was wondering what hpsmh uses as an SNMP community string to access the mib info from net-snmp or does it access the hp-snmp-agents through a different API)

Hi Michael,
you are right: the SMH access the agent by SNMP.
So verify your SNMP settings, make sure you have entries for localhost, something like:

rwcommunity private 127.0.0.1
rocommunity public localhost

kind regards
Markus

I installed the templates rpm and now everything shows up on the browser. It surprises me that the templates are not included in the smhd rpm (maybe an oversight). Don't know why but would have saved me a LOT of time.
