Configure the SNMP Agent on Windows

To configure the SNMP agent on Windows

  1. Be sure that the NETE_PS_ROOT environment variable is set to the SiteMinder installation directory. The Policy Server installation program should have already done this.
  2. Open siteminder_home\config\snmp.conf file and edit the last row to contain the full path to siteminder_home\log\snmp.log.

    Note: You only need to do this if you did not specify the Policy Server installation program to automatically configure SNMP.

    Correct example: LOG_FILE=C:\Program Files\Netegrity\siteminder\ log\snmp.LOG

    Incorrect example: LOG_FILE=$NETE_PS_ROOT\log\snmp.log

  3. Edit the windows_dir/java_service.ini file.

    Note: You only need to do this if you did not specify the Policy Server installation to automatically configure SNMP.

    1. Set SERVICE_BINARY_NAME to the full path name of JavaService.exe.

      Example: SERVICE_BINARY_NAME=c:\winnt\JavaService.exe

    2. Set WORKING_DIR to the full path to directory siteminder_home\bin:

      Example: WORKING_DIR=C:\Program files\Netegrity\siteminder\bin

    3. Set JRE_PATH to the full path of javaw.exe.
  4. Run siteminder_home\bin\thirdparty\proxyreg.exe to change the registry keys for the apadll.dll and snmp.conf:
    proxyreg.exe full_path_for_apadll.dll full_path_for_snmp.conf
    

    Important! If you are running a SiteMinder utility or executable on Windows Server 2008, be sure to open the command–line window with Administrator permissions, even if you are logged into the system as an Administrator. For more information, see the release notes for your SiteMinder component.

    Example: proxyreg.exe "c:\program files\netegrity\siteminder\ bin\ thirdparty\apadll.dll" "c:\programfiles\netegrity\ siteminder\ config\ snmp.conf"

  5. Run WINNT dir/JavaService.exe with the -install option, to register the Netegrity SNMP agent as a WINNT service.
  6. Start the Netegrity SNMP agent by using the Windows Services dialog box.
  7. Restart the SNMP service.
