UNSOLVED
[RH5.2]SNMP write request failed.
Hi there,
I've got a problem with the ITA and the SNMP configuration on RedHat 5.3 clusters.
There are several servers which return a failure running the SNMP-Troubleshoot test in the IT Assistant Version 8.5.0 with "SNMP write request failed for Set community names ...".
What I've checked so far:
- The file /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf is identical with the ones on the systems where it's working fine.
- The SNMP version is the same.
- There's no firewall between the ITA-Server and the clients.
- The Kernel version of the system where it's working is 2.6.18-128.1.1, it's failing on a system with 2.6.18-128.4.1, but I don't know if this actually affects the problem.
is there anything I've missed to check. Something that could actually cause this problem? Anyone experiences with this?
regards,
Daniel
OK. I'm on the next step.
I get a positive test-result using the troubleshooting tool in OMIA.
I just followed the steps mentioned in the documentation and the set-operations are working now as well.
But one problem remains: I don't get any data from the system beside the IP-addresses. The name resolution works, though.
I also removed the object from the configuration, let it be discovered again, but the situation remains unchanged. The same situation has been verified on a second system with the same result as well.
Any suggestions what to do if now information is gonna be delivered by the system?
- No Firewall
- OMSA installed and running.
regards,
daniel

This is just a wild guess, but when you created the discovery ranges for those systems in ITA, did you put the exact same (case-sensitive) community strings in the Get and Set blanks?
