Now I didn't setup the current cluster FAS 3020 (before my time) - it is enabled - its state after a clean install is not the question here.
(I do have a fresh out of the box FAS3140 7.3.2.RC1)
init [1]
community [ro / public]
traps [0]
auth[0]
If I attempt to disble snmp on the current cluster I receive message to set option snmp enable on partner or next takeover will not work correctly - this is what I would like to test, can I disable both and still have the "takeover" work correctly? And if so, is there a way to test without performing a failure.
UPDATE: (after nother call to NetApp Support) Spoke to another Tech early this afternoon - he did confirm that snmp is NOT used for heartbeat and only used for Ops Management - Now I'm comfortable in turning it off at this time. I will re-enable when Ops Management comes on-line.
JUST AN FYI: I've upgraded three FAS 3020s to FAS3140s and snmp is enabled "out-of-the-box".
