Description Ian Springer 2009-10-01 18:47:00 UTC
Comment 1 Red Hat Bugzilla 2009-11-10 21:04:36 UTC 
This bug was previously known as http://jira.rhq-project.org/browse/RHQ-2446
Comment 2 Charles Crouch 2010-07-22 17:20:28 UTC 
Deon, we should doc this as a known issue.
Comment 3 Deon Ballard 2010-07-22 18:21:31 UTC 
Just to check, the issue is that the discovery process does *not* get the address and port from the .conf file?
Comment 4 Ian Springer 2010-07-22 19:49:51 UTC 
Correct, the discovery always just sets the SNMP host property to "127.0.0.1" and the port property to "1610". If these are not the correct values, it's up to the user to update the connection properties via the Apache resource's Inventory>Connection tab in the GUI.
Comment 5 Deon Ballard 2010-08-02 16:50:13 UTC 
This is in the known issues:

Comment 6 Lukas Krejci 2010-10-15 23:36:05 UTC 
This has been implemented in master by commit 9bf39010bcf60ad0cd52876be3f1255329cf656e
Comment 7 Mike Foley 2011-04-26 17:12:22 UTC 
Verifying that I am seeing the SNMP host property set to 127.0.0.1 and the port to 1610 for my Apache servers.
Comment 8 Lukas Krejci 2011-04-27 06:53:14 UTC 
127.0.0.1 and 1610 are default values.

Please re-test this by changing the configuration in snmpd.conf to some non-standard values and running the discovery. The discovered values should of course correspond to the ones in the config file, not the default.
Comment 9 Mike Foley 2011-04-28 12:58:31 UTC 
adding information on Apache SNMP installation and configuration .... for my own reference.

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_Operations_Network/2.4/html/Resource_Monitoring_and_Operations_Reference/Managed_Servers.html#Apache_SNMP_Configuration

...specifically step #8 on changing port
Comment 10 Sunil Kondkar 2011-06-17 07:34:07 UTC 
Verified on build#140 (Version: 4.1.0-SNAPSHOT Build Number: 5905b70)

Modified the file /etc/httpd/conf/snmpd.conf with below line:

agentaddress 8161.193.104

Discovered apache resource. Navigated to the Inventory->Connection Settings tab of the apache resource and verified that the field 'SNMP Agent Host' displays value '10.65.193.104' and the field 'SNMP Agent Port' displays the value '8161'. Please refer the attached screenshot.

Marking as verified.
