Which SNMP agent are you querying ?

The SNMP agent on the control station is separate from the SNMP agent on the data mover.

On the CS it’s a simple UCD SNMP agent as with other Linux systems – configured in /etc/snmp

The data mover SNMP config is done with server_snmp or the GUI.

Its documented quite well in the

        Configuring Events and Notifications on VNX for File

manual that’s part of your documentation set and also on Powerlink.

I have a same issue and I don't think it need CS to get the snmp info.

I think it need get the snmp info from data mover.

I could get the snmp info from 2 storage processors but I can't get info from data mover.

The EMC model is VNX5300

The data mover(server_2) IP is 192.168.10.50

server_snmpd server_2 -info

server_2 :

enabled   = Yes

location  = system location is not set.

contact   = system contact is not set

community = public

server_snmpd server_2 -service -status

server_2 :

SNMP Running

C:\usr\bin>snmpwalk -c public -v 2c 192.168.10.50

Timeout: No Response from 192.168.10.50

You have to configure it on the datamover.

Look at page 52 of the manual Rainer toll you.

Configure SNMP on Data Movers

The server_snmpd command manipulates SNMP configuration values of the server agent

for the specified Data Mover.

The values you can set or modify are community, syscontact, and location. Using SNMPv3

on VNX and EMC VNX Command Line Interface Reference for File provides more information

about this command.

Action

To assign a new value of private to a server SNMP agent’s community for a Data Mover, type:

$ server_snmpd server_2 -modify -community private

Output

server_2 :

OK

Yes – if you configure it correctly it will work

Besides – on the other forum post it looked like 192.168.10.50 was the IP address of the control station.

If you want a SNMP response from the data mover you need to use the correct IP address of the data mover.

I think that IP is on the data mover.

server_snmpd server_2 -info

server_2 :

enabled   = Yes

location  = system location is not set.

contact   = system contact is not set

community = public

server_snmpd server_2 -service -status

server_2 :

SNMP Running

Just post the Output of server_ifconfig server_2 -a

Also - can you Ping that IP from the Host you are running smpwalk from?

server_2 :
