/usr/sbin/mib2agt

[bob_88]

Hi,

I am trying to increase the size of /tmp, but it is being user by a /usr/sbin/mib2agt process. I don't want to kill this process without knowing how to start it after. Does anyone know
1- how to kill it
2- how to restart it.

Thanks

There should be a startup script for mib2agt. If I am not mistaken it is ..
/sbin/init.d/SnmpMib2
First check the control file /etc/rc.config.d/SnmpMib2 to make sure the var "SNMP_MIB2_START=1". If it is you can just run ...

# /sbin/init.d/SnmpMib2 stop
==> to kill it

# /sbin/init.d/SnmpMib2 start
==> to start it.

Having said that /tmp is usually not able to be umounted in multiuser mode. I would recommend extending your /tmp in single user mode if you do not have OnlineJFS.

Hi

This is just a thought...
Do U have Online JFS Installed? If yes, U don't need to worry abot mib2 or anyother.. Just use lvextend with fsadm command... U are done

If no online JFs, then...
1) How to kill the mib2agt process?

Yes, U can kill by using kill -9 command.. Fist find out the process id by using
#ps -ef |grep mib2agt
#kill -9

2) How to restart?

This I am not very sure..I think /usr/sbin/mib2agt command will start the process.

Just check it out...

Best of luck
