Operations

The delivery unit NET-SNMP contains the SNMP daemon (snmpd), the SNMP trap daemon, the SNMP client tools and the functionality of both Event and Scheduling services.

With SNMP-AGENTS, a set of agents for system and administration tasks is supplied.

This chapter describes startup and shutdown of the separate components in BS2000/OSD as well as commands used to retrieve information. The final section provides information on the procedure in the event of errors.

Important!

• None of the agents are "daemonized" by default and it is recommended to start them in the background by adding "&" at the end of statement.

• It is not recommended to start agents manually. The best practice is to use rc scripts to start/stop the SNMP products.
