SNMP on AIX 7.2 issue in query

Post by biswajit.banerjee »

Hi
Followed https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... g-SNMP.pdf

for SNMP activation on AIX 7.2

When we are Querying from Nagios XI , we are getting following error
[root@drnplnagios libexec]# ./check_snmp_storage.pl -H xx.xx.xx.xx -C String-XXXX -m "^/$" -w 2 -c 4
ERROR: Description/Type table : The requested table is empty or does not exist.
[root@drnplnagios libexec]#

[root@drnplnagios libexec]# snmpwalk -v2c -c String-XXXX xx.xx.xx.xx
SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2 = No more variables left in this MIB View (It is past the end of the MIB tree)


Can you please help urgently

If the snmp daemons are not running on the AIX server, it could cause that error.
Try starting all of the daemons on the AIX server.

Code: Select all

startsrc -s aixmibd -a "-c Str0ngC0mmunity"
startsrc -s hostmibd -a "-c Str0ngC0mmunity"
startsrc -s snmpmibd -a "-c Str0ngC0mmunity"
startsrc -s snmpd
Then run the snmpwalk command again.

If it fails, run this on the AIX server and post the output here.
