EZZ6278I
SNMP agent: unsuccessful initialization: (no boots file | no engineID | incorrect engineID | incorrect engineBoots). SNMP agent ending.

Explanation

This SNMP agent is attempting to initialize for SNMPv3 security, but one of the following occurred:
  • no boots file - no boots file could be opened or created.
  • no engineID - an existing boots file was opened, but it did not contain an engineID value.
  • incorrect engineID - an existing boots file was opened, but it contained an engineID that was not in the correct format.
  • incorrect engineBoots - an existing boots file was opened, but it contained an engineBoots value that was not in the correct format.

System action

The SNMP agent ends.

Operator response

None.

System programmer response

A boots initialization file is required when SNMPv3 security is used. If an existing file is opened, it must contain valid engineID and engineBoots values. Either correct the error and restart the agent or configure the SNMP agent not to use SNMPv3 security. See the z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference for configuring the SNMP agent.

Module
