For starters, there's a known issue with certain versions of NCPA on Solaris 10. Which version of the NCPA agent do you have? Yours may or may not be OK, so let us know what you have.

Most things on Solaris work pretty much the same as Linux, with a few differences.

how to check agent successfully installed or not

Code: Select all

# ls /usr/local/ncpa

Does it look like everything is in there?

Code: Select all

# ps -efa | grep ncpa

Does ncpa appear to be running?
Also, if you hit https://your-solaris-machine.whatever.it.is:5693/ in a web browser, what do you see?

how to change community_string (as done in centos via vim or vi editor)

This is the same; vi works on Solaris the same way as linux.

firewall rules if any

I will refer you to this document:

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01 ... ndex.html

restart the agent if needed

Code: Select all

# svcs -a | grep -i ncpa
# svcadm enable ncpa
# svcadm restart ncpa  

If the output of svcs -a shows a different name for the ncpa service, use whatever is correct.

Hope that helps!
