UPGRADING TO LOTUS NOTES 6 AND LOTUS DOMINO 6


Upgrading the Domino SNMP Agent
If you used the Domino SNMP Agent with a previous release of Lotus Domino, read the instructions in this section before using SNMP with Lotus Domino 6.

To upgrade the Domino SNMP Agent on the AIX, Linux, and Solaris platforms, first configure the Domino 6 SNMP Agent, then uninstall the previous SNMP agent. To upgrade the Domino SNMP Agent on a Windows platform, first uninstall the previous SNMP agent, then configure the Domino 6 SNMP Agent.

If you enabled the Server Start, Server Stop, or Reboot System options that were previously configured in the LSNMPCFG.NSFdatabase, re-enable the options in the SNMP tab of the server’s Configuration Settings document in the Domino Directory. After this is done, you can delete the LSNMPCFG.NSF database because the Domino SNMP Agent no longer uses it.

Follow these steps to uninstall a previous release of the Domino SNMP Agent. Check the appropriate sections below for your server platform.

Windows

The configuration steps automatically remove the old LNSNMP service. After this is done, you can delete the NVMIBDLL.DLL file in your SYSTEM directory.

AIX

First, stop the LNSNMP process, as the root user, enter the following command at the server console:

/etc/lnsnmp.rc stop
You may then delete the /etc/notesview directory along with all its subdirectories and contents. The /etc/lnsnmp.rc script will be replaced when you follow the configuration steps.
