tadm start-snmp-subagent common_options [--instance-home=instance_home] [--agentx] (node_host)*
Use this command to start the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) subagent.
Note:
The SNMP subagent does not require the administration server to be in the running mode.
For information about common_options
, run the help command.
--instance-home|-i
Indicates the location where the server instances can be found. You must specify a valid installation location. When an --instance-home
is specified, the command starts the SNMP subagent locally. When an --instance-home
is not specified, the command does not start the SNMP subagent locally, but tries to connect to the administration server.
--agentx|-x
Specifies whether the SNMP subagent to run as subagent using the agentx protocol. If the SNMP subagent runs as agentx, the SNMP master agent must be up and running.
Note:
While running as an agentx protocol, the master agent (snmpd) needs to be configured to listen to the agentx protocol and must open the path mentioned in admin-server/config/snmpagt.conf
. Make sure that the OTD SNMP has the required permissions to the agentx protocol.
node-host
Specify the name of the node running on the configuration.
To start the SNMP subagent on one or more nodes:
tadm start-snmp-subagent --user=admin node1.example.com
To start the SNMP subagent locally on a node:
tadm start-snmp-subagent --instance-home=/home/otd
The following exit values are returned:
0: command executed successfully
