Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Version 7.3 User's Guide

Enabling SNMP Set Operations

SNMP Set operations must be enabled on the system running Server Administrator in order to change Server Administrator attributes using IT Assistant. To enable remote shutdown of a system from IT Assistant, SNMP Set operations must be enabled.
  • NOTE: Rebooting of your system for change management functionality does not require SNMP Set operations.

To enable SNMP Set operations on a system running Server Administrator:

  1. Open the SNMP agent configuration file, /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf.
  2. Find the line that reads: rocommunity public 127.0.0.1.
  3. Edit this line by replacing rocommunity with rwcommunity. When edited, the new line should read: rwcommunity public 127.0.0.1.
  4. To enable SNMP configuration changes, restart the SNMP agent by typing: /etc/init.d/snmpd restart.
