Systems affected by this issue have been upgraded from older OSX Server versions (10.6 and/or 10.8). SNMP configuration has been stripped to a bare minimum (rocommunity, syscontact, syslocation strings). /usr/sbin/snmpd executable appears identical to unaffected nodes that had Yosemite freshly installed.


Questions...

  • What could be causing this?
  • Is there a simple fix?
  • Is there a procedure on how to fully refresh SNMP configuration including executables, MIBs, etc., on Yosemite - short of a full OS reinstall?


Thanks!

Xserve 3,1-OTHER, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), upgraded from 10.8 or 10.6
