The generic SNMP support works fine with SCOM if you install netsnmp on the Linux guests and load the appropriate MIB files into SCOM. Microsoft doesn't supply a 390x binary for their extended agents, so the amount of introspection you can do is limited, but if standard MIB2 stuff is good enough, that works fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
