6-26 MegaRAID Storage Manager Overview and Installation
Note: This procedure requires that you have Net-SNMP agent
installed on the Linux machine.
Note: The RPM has not been created to support -U version.
The RPM -U will probably fail with this RPM.
Note: After installation, find the SAS MIB file ThinkServer-
AdapterSAS.mib under the /etc/ThinkServer_mrdsnmp/sas
directory.
RPM makes the necessary modification needed in the snmpd.conf
file to run the agent.
Note: Before installation, check whether there is any pass
command that starts with 1.3.6.1.4.1.3582 OID in
snmpd.conf. If so, delete all of the old pass commands that
if an earlier version of ThinkServer SNMP Agent was installed if an earlier version of ThinkServer SNMP Agent was installed
in the system.)

ThinkServer_mrdsnmpd.conf . For reference, a sample conf file
