How to Add an SNMP User on a Node

This procedure shows how to add an SNMP user to the SNMP user configuration on a node.

This procedure provides the long forms of the Sun Cluster commands. Most commands also have short forms. Except for the long and short forms of the command names, the commands are identical. For a list of the commands and their short forms, see Appendix A, Sun Cluster Object-Oriented Commands.

1. Become superuser or assume a role that provides solaris.cluster.modify RBAC authorization.

2. Add the SNMP user.

   phys-schost-1# clsnmpuser create -n node -a authentication \ -f password user

   -n node

   Specifies the node on which the SNMP user is added. You can specify a node ID or a node name. If you do not specify this option, the current node is used by default.

   -a authentication

   Specifies the authentication protocol that is used to authorize the user. The value of the authentication protocol can be SHA or MD5.

   -f password

   Specifies a file that contains the SNMP user passwords. If you do not specify this option when you create a new user, the command prompts for a password. This option is valid only with the add subcommand.

   You must specify user passwords on separate lines in the following format:

   user:password
   

   Passwords cannot contain the following characters or a space:

   • ; (semicolon)

   • : (colon)

   • \ (backslash)

   • \n (newline)

   user

   Specifies the name of the SNMP user that you want to add.
