I agree with you on how challenging it is to reset the password, for one of my PDU's this site was extremely helpful
http://www.forked.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=3490 I found that the hoops you end up jumping thru really depend on what firmware is loaded and don't get easier with practice, for me reseting a 2nd PDU a couple years later was just a challenging as the 1st.
Let's try a couple of more things. We need to figure out if you can manual launch snmptrapd, the new version of the plugin 'should' be launching it correctly.
To do that manually, paste the following command into terminal:
- Code: Select all
sudo /usr/sbin/snmptrapd -m PowerNet-MIB -c '/Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/Indigo 7/Plugins/APC PDU Control.indigoPlugin/Contents/Server Plugin/snmptrapd.conf'
Ultimately, this is what the plugin is attempting to do.
It should *not* require a password if the entries in the '/etc/sudoers' file are working.
If that seems to work, you can confirm the snmptrap process is actually running with the following command:
- Code: Select all
ps -U root | grep snmptrap
It should provide a result similiar to this.
37794 ?? 0:00.02 /usr/sbin/snmptrapd -m PowerNet-MIB -c /Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/Indigo 7/Plugins/APC PDU Control.indigoPlugin/Contents/Server Plugin/snmptrapd.conf
The process ID, is the very first number.
To manuallly kill snmptrapd, use the following command:
- Code: Select all
sudo /bin/kill -TERM 37794
replace 37794, the Process ID, with whatever number is displayed on your end.
Let me know what output you get when attempting this in terminal.
