Title: Agent on Mac OS
Post by: zsing82 on September 20, 2012, 05:25:05 PM
Hello.  I'm wondering if it's currently supported to install NetXMS agent on Mac OS.  I have a customer with an Apple environment, all clients and servers are using Mac OS.  This customer only calls me when he believes his switches, routers, or firewall are giving him problems.  I'm not very familiar with Mac OS, but my customer is.  Is there a way I can install NetXMS agent on my customer's Mac servers so I can monitor performance?  If NetXMS agent cannot be installed on Mac OS, does the server operating system have a SNMP agent that can be installed/enabled?  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!  Thank you.

Core agent already can be compiled and installed on OS X, however platform subagent in early stage of development. I just started it a week ago, and I think it will be included in 1.2.4 release.
In a meantime, you can use SNMP, according to Apple it's included in Server version of OS. Instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA20884
