Installing and configuring SNMP on OpenSolaris

SNMP is installed and run slightly differently on OpenSolaris than on Solaris 10, so here's the basics on what you need to know.

Firstly, you'll need to install the SUNWsmmgr package.

pkg install SUNWsmmgr

All of the config files, including snmpd.conf have moved to /etc/sma/snmp.

The service you need to run is now called sma.

svcadm enable svc:/application/management/sma:default

Stay tuned as I'm currently setting up iSCSI targets on my OpenSolaris server at home and will be running the initiator from a RHEL5 box.
