Hello .

Need to disable SNMP Server on AIX 7.1.

modified following lines in /etc/rc.tcpip

 #start /usr/sbin/snmpd "$src_running"

 #start /usr/sbin/snmpmibd "$src_running"

and rebooted the whole system.

Afterwards the snmpd is still alive :

ps -eaf |grep snmp
    root 4718744 3866834   0 07:51:50      -  0:00 /usr/sbin/snmpd
 

Where is the other place to switch off the snmpd permaanentely, means that it is no longer started after boot.

Thankx in advance .

What is the result off the command:

lssrc -a | grep snmpd

if started (on line)

stopsrc -s snmpd

But the # of the command of the /etc/rc.tcpip would must off the services ???

Hello .

Here is the output :

bash-4.2# lssrc -a |grep snmp
 snmpd            tcpip            4653204      active
 snmpmibd         tcpip                         inoperative

bash-4.2# oslevel -s
7100-02-02-1316

And the /etc/rc.tcpip shows:

# Start up the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) daemon
#start /usr/sbin/snmpd "$src_running"

# Start up the hostmibd daemon
#start /usr/sbin/hostmibd "$src_running"

# Start up the snmpmibd daemon
#start /usr/sbin/snmpmibd "$src_running"

# Start up the aixmibd daemon
#start /usr/sbin/aixmibd "$src_running"



But after reboot the snmpd is active .

 stopsrc -s snmpd put it into state 'inoperative'

But my question is, how can we disable snmpd , so that it does not start after reboot .

Comment out the start of snmp daemon in /etc/rc.tcpip

In /etc/rc.tcpip, comment out the sendmail entry: chrctcp -d snmpmibd-

Rename the file: /opt/ibm/icc/cimom/bin/startdirsnmpd

This script will restart snmp despite having it commented out in /etc/rc.tcpip

Hi

I have the same problem. Looks like this program is part of the director subsystem that starts from inittab. I have commented out the cimservices entry in inittab.
