Hi, all

Domino 14.0FP4
OS Rocky 9.5

We tried to configure SNMP Agent according to

As a result, after installing according to this instruction, there is an error on the server:

05 15:14:11 net-snmpd[5443]: Starting net-snmpd:
05 15:14:11 net-snmpd[5449]: /bin/bash: Line 1: /etc/net-snmpd: There is no such file or directory
05 15:14:11 net-snmpd[5443]: [ERROR ]
05 15:14:11 systemd: net-snmpd.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE

Failed to start LSB: NET-SNMPD Master Agent.

Can you tell me, is there any up-to-date and correct information on SNMP Agent settings?

Thanks in advance

Hi, Chu.

I don’t think that the error is on the agent. But the error seems to be on OS specific.
I see some similar forum on OS related: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1522081/systemctl-daemon-reload-needs-to-be-run-after-every-update-command-how-do-i-a

It’s a bit more complicated than your answer. The net-snmpd file is a 32-bit file. You can check it with the command: file /opt/hcl/domino/notes/latest/linux/net-snmpd

The output will be as follows:
ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, not stripped

To solve this, install the glibc.i686 package: sudo dnf install glibc.i686

The fact that the distribution is 32 bit and this is not stated in the documentation is rather an omission of the documentation itself.
I would also like to point out that there are errors in the documentation, for example, the software is installed under the path /opt/hcl/domino, but the documentation for version 14 still says /opt/ibm/lotus.

The bottom line is that following the documentation it is simply impossible to install and configure SNMP.
