Installing and operating the mapper
The DMI to SNMP mapper is part of the DMI
package shipped with UnixWare 7 Release 7.1. The mapper is not available in
earlier versions of DMI.
When DMI is installed it automatically modifies SNMP's
peers file as described in
``Forcing SNMP to accept traps from enterprise OIDs other than 412.''.
DMI must therefore always be installed after SNMP.
Starting the mapper
-
Log on as root
-
Confirm that in.snmpd is running by entering:
ps -aef | grep in.snmpd
-
If dmi is running stop it. Type
dmi stop
-
Restart dmi with the mapper. Enter:
dmi start -s
In addition to the normal DMI daemons ( dmispd and
oncsp ), two new daemons, dmi2snmpd.trapper and
dmi2snmpd.commander, should be running.
Status and error messages are logged to the system log file.
Stopping the mapper
-
Log on as root
-
Stop dmi and restart it without the -s option.
Starting the mapper automatically on reboot
In the file /etc/init.d/dmi.bg change the line:
dmi $@ &
to :
dmi $@ -w -s &
