NAME

magt– start the Directory Server master agent

SYNOPSIS

mpsadmserver magt [-p portnum] CONFIG parameters_file
/ServerRoot/plugins/snmp/magt/magt [-p portnum] CONFIG parameters_file

DESCRIPTION

The magt command starts the SNMP master agent, which runs as a daemon process and listens by default to the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port 161 for SNMP requests. The master agent waits for subagents to register, sends requests to and receives responses from subagents, and traps notifications from subagents.

When it is invoked, the master agent reads its configuration file, determines the subtree Object Identifier (OID) for various subagents, and populates its own Management Information Bases (MIBs).

To run the master agent on a port other than 161, modify the configuration_file file before starting the agent from the command line.

OPTIONS

The following options are supported:

-p portnum

Specifies the port number to which clients must connect to use the magt snmp command.

CONFIG

The configuration file is located in ServerRoot/plugins/snmp/magt. It defines the community and the manager that the master agent works with. Specify the manager value as a valid system name or an IP address. An invalid manager name in the CONFIG file causes the master agent start-up to fail. For more information, see the Administration Server Administration Guide.

parameters_file

The path to the parameters file. This file contains information from the MIB-II system group, including system location and contact information. If it does not already exist, starting the master agent for the first time will create it. An invalid manager name in the parameters_file prevents the master agent from starting.

EXIT STATUS

The following exit values are returned:

0

Successful completion.

1

An error occurred.
