Sun StorEdge N8200 Filer Installation, Configuration, and Service Guide

2. Set up the
/etc/raid/rmparams
file so that RAID Manager 6.x will know where
to direct the SNMP trap messages.
a. Ensure the host system is connected to the network.
b. Access the
/etc/raid/rmparams
file and set the value of
SNMP_Target_IP_Address
to the dotted-notation IP address of the NMS on
which the MIB has been compiled.
On most systems, this IP address can also be a dotted-notation multicast address
or broadcast address. The
SNMP_Target_IP_Address
provides the SNMP IP
address for remote notification.
c. Access the
/etc/raid/rmparams
file and change the community name from
its default of NONE to a community name you want such as
public
.
Your network environment might require a different name. The
SNMP_Community_Name
file provides the community name to be used for SNMP
remote notification.
d. Access the
/etc/raid/rmparams
file and change the
SNMP_Action_Number
default value from 0 to either 1 or 2.
The
SNMP_Action_Number
indicates the SNMP trap notification option you
want to use. A value of 1 sends SNMP traps to the designated NMS station. A
value of 2 writes all relevant data to the
/etc/raid/bin/trap.dat
file.
e. Copy the edited
/etc/raid/
rmparams
file to the
/etc/default
directory and
make a backup copy of the file.
f. Ensure that the
/etc/osa/locks/rmparams.lock
file is writable by root.
This can be a problem if the Sun StorEdge RAID Manager 6.x software in NFS
mounted.
g. Ensure that the
/etc/resolv.conf
file exists and has the Domain Name
Service (DNS) entries required.
For example, to configure the filer to be a DNS client:
i. Access the
/etc/resolv.conf
file and add the following entry for
nameserver:
where:
nameserver is a default parameter/name depicting the primary function of a
DNS server
129.148.1.245
is the IP address of your primary DNS nameserver
#
nameserver
129.148.1.245
