XenServer: SNMP Monitoring
– Downloaded versions come with SNMP disabled, enable using Citrix ctx116187
o In brief, from SSH:
service snmpd start (this enables SNMP service)
chkconfig snmpd on (this ensures SNMP starts after reboot)
o Disregard other “installation” steps on KB, as they apply to release 3.x and prior, however no more recent KB is available
o You can customize and lock down SNMP via vi /etc/snmp/snmp.conf (if you know what you’re doing and know the vi editor)
