system.

6.7 Installing and
Configuring an SNMP Agent
A Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)-based management application can
monitor and manage devices through SNMP extension agents. The MegaRAID SNMP
subagent reports the information about the RAID controller, virtual drives, physical
devices, enclosures, and other items per SNMP request. The SNMP application monitors
these devices for issues that might require administrative attention.
This section describes the installation and configuration of the MegaRAID SNMP
agent on Linux, Solaris, and Windows operating systems.
6.7.1 Prerequisite for SNMP
Agent RPM Installation
The SNMP agent application depends upon the standard SNMP Utils package.
Please make sure that the SNMP-Util package is present in the system before you install
SNMP agent RPM.
The SNMP-Util package includes the RPM’s net-snmp-libs, net-snmp-utils, and
additional dependent rpm’s.
Make sure that these RPM’s are installed from the operating system media before you
install the SNMP agent RPM.
6.7.2 Installing and Configuring an
SNMP Agent on Linux
This section explains how to install and configure SAS SNMP Agent for the SUSE Linux
and Red Hat Linux operating systems.
To do this, perform the following steps.
NOTE: This procedure requires that you have Net-SNMP agent installed on the Linux
machine.
NOTE: The RPM has not been created to support -U version.
The RPM -U will probably fail with this RPM.
1. Install SAS SNMP Agent using the rpm -ivh <sas rpm> comman
d.
NOTE: After installation, find the SAS MIB file LSI-AdapterSAS.mib under the
/etc/lsi_mrdsnmp/sas directory.
