The Sun MediaCenter software is shipped with its own SNMP agent, which is part of the SUNWsmsnm package. This agent is based on the SNMP agent shipped with the Solstice Domain Manager (SDM); the agent has been extended to support the Sun MediaCenter server. This appendix tells you how to configure the SNMP agent, and how to access that agent using Solstice Domain Manager.

Note Because you need to provide site-specific information when installing the SNMP agent, the SUNWsmsnm package is not preinstalled on the Sun MediaCenter server. Therefore, if you want to use the SNMP agent to manage the Sun MediaCenter, you must install the SUNWsmsnm package from the “Sun MediaCenter Software 2.1 Recovery” CD-ROM. To do this, access the CD-ROM and run the swmtool or pkgadd program, then select the SUNWsmsnm package for installation. (These steps are described in detail in Chapter 4 in the SunMediaCenter Server Installation and Configuration Manual. The prompts that you will need to respond to for SUNWsmsnm installation are also described in that manual.)

The SNMP agent described here is compatible with any SNMP-capable management product. You are not limited to the use of Solstice Domain Manager in managing the Sun MediaCenter server.
