Re: [nv-l] SNMP Community change

[James Shanks <jshanks@us.ibm.com>]

I'm confused.  Are you having a
problem now or are you trying to avoid one?  If you are having one,
then try
        xnmsnmpconf
-clearCache
so that you guarantee that the old entries
are removed from the in-memory cache that xnmsnmpconf maintains for performance
reasons.

There's no place in snmpCol.conf for
snmpCollect to store a community name.  So he doesn't need a signal
to tell him to use the ovsnmp database; he always does.  However,
after you have changed a community name, you may need to clear the cache
to make certain that the old one is gone.
  I suggest you take a look at
the man page for xnmsnmpconf.  There are options to dump the cache
and see what's in it, and other things you might find useful.

Subject	[nv-l] SNMP Community change

We are going to chenge read comminiy in several routers
in  out network.
With xnmsnmpconf command or snmpConf GUI I can make the change in Netview
netmon without stopping daemons.
My doubt is how can I send a signal to snmpCollect in order to work with
the new comminity withot stopping it.
I have try xnmsnmpconf -event but does not work
Any suggestion
