Hi.
Curious if you might have any pointers on getting the Oracle SNMP services to generate v2 traps instead of v1?

I have looked through the Oracle SNMP Support Reference Guide (a96672) and Intelligent Agent User's Guide (a96676). While I can find /reference/ to things producing v2 traps, I can not see how to enable v2.

v1 traps are communicated once the following are executed:

as "oracle":
% agentctl start agent

as root:
# cd $ORACLE_HOME/network/snmp/peer
# ./start_peer -a

The config files that I have manipulated are
$ORACLE_HOME/network/snmp/peer/CONFIG.master to identify the MANAGER machine to communicate with and /etc/snmp/conf/snmpd.conf to again identify the host to tell traps about and identify the trap-community.

My listening host understands the messages if we are listening for SNMPv1, but not if we are listening for SNMPv2. Due to some other items we wish to monitor with SNMP, we need to get Oracle to speak SNMPv2.

Do you have any pointers on where I should look to make Oracle send out SNMPv2 traps rather than v1?

Thanks for your help in this matter,
Jim
