Configuring SNMP

If you choose not to use the SNMP features of CAR, the installation process is completed. To use SNMP features, complete the configuration procedure described in Configuring SNMP.

Configuring SNMP

If you choose not to use the SNMP features of CAR, the installation process is completed. To use SNMP features, complete the configuration procedure described in Configuring SNMP, page 4-14.

If you have modified the snmpd.conf file in the /cisco-ar/ucd-snmp/share/snmpdirectory, you must back up this file before doing the upgrade process. The pkgrm removes the snmpd.conf file, even if it has been modified.

After installing CAR 4.2 software with pkgadd, you must copy the snmpd.conf file back to the /cisco-ar/ucd-snmp/share/snmpdirectory. Restart the Cisco AR server using the following command:

/etc/init.d/arserver restart

Restarting Replication

Before you enable replication, you must first upgrade all replication slave servers to the same version of Access Registrar software as the master server. Do not enable replication on the master server until all slave servers have been upgraded.

Use the same process you used to upgrade the master server to upgrade any slave servers. If you retained your configuration on the master, retain the configuration on the slaves, too.

After the same version of Cisco AR software has been installed on all slave servers, you can enable replication on the master server again. After enabling replication on the master server, you can enable replication on each of the slave servers.
