💖 PCS_SNMP_AGENT(8) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the pcs_snmp_agent page — it lives in section 8 of the manual (system administration utilities, the serious girlies section) 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

pcs_snmp_agent — a SNMP agent providing data about a corosync/pacemaker cluster

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so pcs_snmp_agent is a SNMP agent, right? but it's not like a solo main character — it connects to the master agent (that's snmpd) via the agentx protocol, and it serves up info about a corosync/pacemaker cluster. literally its whole job 💅

🎀 SETUP 🎀

ngl this is the important part so pay attention bestie:

pcs_snmp_agent doesn't work as a standalone agent. it only provides data to a master agent. it's giving sidekick energy, and that's fine, we respect it 😌

to configure a snmpd daemon (from package net-snmp) as the master agent, add this line into the snmpd configuration file (see snmp.conf(5)):

master agentx

then the master agent has to be configured to accept requests for pcs defined MIBs. you do that by adding this line into the snmpd config file:

view systemview included .1.3.6.1.4.1.32723.100

and that's it, that's the whole setup vibe ✨

🦋 MIB DATA VERSIONS 🦋
