Issues with Domino SNMP on partitioned AIX servers
Tags: Domino AIX partitions snmp
It appears Domino SNMP on partitioned AIX servers is broken. This does not affect a single DPAR running in its own LPAR. It only comes into play when you are running multiple DPARs in a single LPAR. Here is the issue.
You configure the AIX SNMP service and the Domino LNSNMP service as per the instructions. If you load the quryset task on one of the Domino consoles the task loads as it should. You can query Domino using SNMP. As soon as you start the quryset task on a second Domino partition in the same LPAR SNMP breaks for all partitions. You do not get an error message on the Domino console. The agent says it successfully started. But when you go to query SNMP on any of the Domino servers you get various error messages and no SNMP data.
IBM is aware of this and they have no time frame for fixing it. The SPR is AMON784KY8
I am not sure if this affects other versions of UNIX or Linux using partitions.
