OME issue with Ubuntu server

hmmm..

Not sure if there is any info in FAQ 3.5 that might help.  I guess the trouble is that Ubuntu may not be an officially supported OS for OMSA.  It's possible with a web search other folks have gotten Ubuntu + OMSA working, but something is clearly up with your setup since the troubleshooting tool can't see the OMSA version in the SNMP test.  Is the OMSA service running ok on the Ubuntu box?

Hi and thanks for the question.

Can you run the SNMP test from the Dell Troubleshooting Tool (installed on your OME desktop) and let me know what the results indicate?  For this test to pass you _must_ see an entry in the results that indicate the Server Administrator version.

Thanks,

Rob

Hi Rob,

Thanks for your quickly answer.

When I launch the SNMP test I have this result :

for your information I have this line in snmpd.conf :

view   systemonly  included   .1

rocommunity public  X.X.X.X/24

access notConfigGroup "" any noauth exact all none none

trapsink OMEIP public

smuxpeer .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.1

regards.

Yeah, but that's the OMSA GUI/Browser. That does not mean the SNMP instrumentation is working properly under Ubuntu....different things.  OME will depend on the SNMP instrumentation working correctly.

You might want to do a MIB walk using MGSoft or iReasoning mib browser and see what things are looking like.

Yes, all services are up and I can connect to OMSA (https://IP_adress:1311)

Thanks for your feedback, i will check this.

Hi,

it's an Ubuntu Server 12.04.2 with OMSA 7.1.

Hi,

Which version of Ubuntu Server and OMSA?

I ran into a similar problem on a T410 running 12.04.2 and OMSA 7.1.

This finally seemed to get it working for me today in my test setup:

In /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf I used the following:

rocommunity public

syslocation "Your Location"

syscontact you@email.address

view all included .1

access notConfigGroup "" any noauth exact all none none

smuxpeer .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.1

trapsink OMEIP public

in /etc/default/snmpd I used the following line:

SNMPDOPTS='-Lsd -Lf /dev/null -u snmp -g snmp -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -c /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf'

...then issued 'sudo service snmpd restart'.

I deleted the device for the T410 from OME and kicked off another discovery on that machine.  This time the system showed up properly with all of the expected information.

Package versions installed currently:

snmp  5.4.3~dfsg-2.4ubuntu1.1

snmpd 5.4.3~dfsg-2.4.ubuntu1.1

snmp-mibs-downloader 1.1

libsnmp-base 5.4.3~dfsg-2.4ubuntu1.1

libsnmp15 5.4.3~dfsg-2.4.ubuntu1.1

..hope that helps.

Also,  I created a clean /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf with the above info in it and copied the original snmpd.conf off to snmpd.conf.orig
