##

Before You Begin

Prior to performing the procedures in this chapter, you should ensure that the following requirements are met.

- Before you can use SNMP to view and configure ILOM settings, you must configure SNMP. For more information, see Preparing Your System to Use SNMP.

- To execute the `snmpset` command, you need to use an SNMP v1 or v2c community or an SNMP v3 user with read/write (rw) privileges.

- For examples of SNMP commands, see SNMP Command Examples.

Note - The example SNMP commands presented in this section are based on the Net-SNMP sample applications and, therefore, will only work as presented if you have Net-SNMP and the Net-SNMP sample applications installed.

Configure ILOM configuration management interfaces | View and Configure Policy Settings Configure Power Setting View and Configure Backup and Restore Settings Configure the Reset Setting

### View and Configure Policy Settings

Note - You can use the `get` and `set` commands to view and configure policy settings. For a description of the MIB objects used in these commands, see the SUN-ILOM-CONTROL-MIB.

1. Log in to a host that has an SNMP tool and the ILOM MIBs installed. For example, type:

`ssh` username`@`snmp_manager_ipaddress

`Password``:` password

2. Refer to the following SNMP command examples:

- To view a short description of the policy for policy ID number 2, type:

    % snmpget -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlPolicyShortStr.2

- To view a verbose description of the policy for policy ID number 2, type:

    % snmpget -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlPolicyLongStr.2

- To view the status of the policy for policy ID number 2, type:

    % snmpget -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlPolicyEnabled.2

- To set the status of the policy for policy ID number 2 enabled, type:

    % snmpset -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlPolicyEnabled.2 i 1

### Configure Power Setting

Note - You can use the `set` command to configure the power setting. For a description of the MIB object used in this command, see the SUN-ILOM-CONTROL-MIB.

1. Log in to a host that has an SNMP tool and the ILOM MIBs installed. For example, type:

`ssh` username`@`snmp_manager_ipaddress

`Password``:` password

2. Refer to the following SNMP command example:

- To specify the action “powerOn” and apply it to the power control target named ‘/SYS’, type:

    % snmpset -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlPowerAction.’/SYS’ i 1

### View and Configure Backup and Restore Settings

Note - You can use the `get` and `set` commands to view and configure backup and restore settings. For a description of the MIB objects used in these commands, see the SUN-ILOM-CONTROL-MIB.

1. Log in to a host that has an SNMP tool and the ILOM MIBs installed. For example, type:

`ssh` username`@`snmp_manager_ipaddress

`Password``:` password

2. Refer to the following SNMP command examples:

- To restore the configuration on the SP to the original factory default state, type:

    % snmpset -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlResetToDefaultsAction.0 i 3

- To view the target destination of configuration XML file during backup and restore operation, type:

    % snmpget -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress lomCtrlBackupAndRestoreTargetURI.0

- To set the target destination of configuration XML file during the backup and restore operation to tftp://10.8.136.154/remotedir/config_backup.xml, type:

    % snmpset -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress lomCtrlBackupAndRestoreTargetURI.0 s ‘tftp://10.8.136.154/remotedir/config_backup.xml’

- To set the passphrase to encrypt or decrypt sensitive data during the backup and restore operation, type:

    % snmpset -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlBackupAndRestorePassphrase.0 s ‘passphrase’

- To view the property used to issue a action, either backup or restore, type:

    % snmpget -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlBackupAndRestoreAction.0

- To issue a restore action using the `ilomCtrlBackupAndRestoreAction` MIB object, type:

    % snmpset -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlBackupAndRestoreAction.0 i 2

- To monitor the current status of backup or restore operation, type:

    % snmpget -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlBackupAndRestoreActionStatus.0

### Configure the Reset Setting

Note - You can use the `set` command to configure the reset setting. For a description of the MIB objects used in this command, see the SUN-ILOM-CONTROL-MIB.

1. Log in to a host that has an SNMP tool and the ILOM MIBs installed. For example, type:

`ssh` username`@`snmp_manager_ipaddress

`Password``:` password

2. Refer to the following SNMP command example:

- To specify the action “reset” and apply it to the reset control target named ‘/SP’, type:

    % snmpset -mALL -v2c -cprivate SNMP_agent_ipaddress ilomCtrlResetAction.’/SP’ i 1
