Installing and Configuring an SNMP Agent

NOTE: The complete installation of the MegaRAID Storage Manager software installs
the SNMP agent. However, you can install the SNMP agent (installer) on a system
separately, without the MegaRAID Storage Manager software being installed

6.7.1

Prerequisite for LSI SNMP

Agent RPM Installation

The LSI SNMP agent application depends upon the standard SNMP Utils package. Make
sure that the SNMP-Util package is present in the system before you install LSI SNMP
agent RPM.

The SNMP-Util package includes the RPM’s net-snmp-libs, net-snmp-utils, and
additional dependent RPMs.

Make sure that these RPM’s are installed from the operating system media before you
install the LSI SNMP agent RPM.

6.7.2

Prerequisite for Installing

SNMP Agent on Linux Server

The SNMP application requires the standard library libsysfs. Make sure that this library
is present in the system before installing the SNMP RPM.

The minimum library versions required for installing SNMP server are as follows.

libsysfs version 2.0. This library is available in the rpm
xx-xx.noarch.rpm>.

xx-xx.noarch.rpm>

is packaged in the SNMP zip file.

libstdc++.so.6.

This library is present in /usr/lib directory.

You can install the SNMP application from the Linux software component RPM that
provides these libraries. These RPM's are available in the Linux OS DVD.

6.7.3

Installing and Configuring an

SNMP Agent on a Linux Operating
System

This section explains how to install and configure the SAS SNMP Agent for the SUSE
Linux and Red Hat Linux operating systems.

Perform the following steps to install and configure the SAS SNMP Agent for the SUSE
Linux and Red Hat Linux operating systems:

NOTE: This procedure requires that you have the 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 the LSI SAS SNMP Agent using the rpm -ivh command.

NOTE: After installation, find the SAS MIB file LSI-AdapterSAS.mib under the
/etc/lsi_mrdsnmp/sas

directory.

RPM makes the necessary modification needed in the snmpd.conf file to run the
agent.
