Using the SNMP Plugin for Ksplice Uptrack
The SNMP plugin for Ksplice works with Oracle Enterprise Manager to monitor the status of Ksplice on systems. It also works with any monitoring solution that's compatible with SNMP.
Installing and Configuring the SNMP Plugin
Verify the system meets all prerequisites:
-
The
net-snmp
package must be installed. -
The
net-snmp-utils
package must be installed to test the configuration using the snmpwalk command. -
The
snmpd
service must be configured to start automatically. -
SELinux must either be disabled or set to permissive mode on the system.
This procedure describes how to install the SNMP plugin on the system that you want to monitor.
Note:
This procedure uses thednf
command to describe
many package management actions. On releases earlier than Oracle Linux
8, substitute the commands with the appropriate yum
commands.
For information about configuring SNMP, see the documentation at https://www.net-snmp.org/docs/readmefiles.html. See also the
snmpd(8)
and snmpd.conf(5)
manual pages.
