OSASNMPD(8)

NAME
osasnmpd - IBM OSA-Express network card SNMP subagent.

SYNOPSIS
osasnmpd [-h] [-v] [-f] [-l logfile | -L] [-A] [-P pidfile] [-x agentx-socket]

DESCRIPTION
osasnmpd is a SNMP subagent for the ucd-snmp 4.2.x package and supports the MIBs provided by an IBM OSA-Express network card. The subagent communicates via the AgentX protocol with the snmpd daemon. Hence the snmpd daemon must be already started before osasnmpd can start successfully.

OPTIONS

-h  Print usage message and exit.

-v  Print Version information and exit.

-f  Don't fork() from the calling shell.

-l logfile
    Logs all output from the subagent (including stdout/stderr) to logfile.
    (By default logfile=/var/log/osasnmpd.log)

-A  Append to the logfile rather than truncating it.

-L  Print warnings/messages to stdout/stderr.

-P pidfile
    Save the process ID of the subagent in pidfile.

-x agentx-socket
    Uses the specified socket as AgentX connection rather than the default '/var/agentx/master'. The socket can either be a Unix domain socket path, or the address of a network interface. If a network address of the form inet-addr:port is given, then the subagent will use the port specified. If a network address of the form inet-addr is given, then the subagent will use the default AgentX port, 705.
