NAME

       snmpa_supervisor - A supervisor for the SNMP agent Processes

DESCRIPTION

       This is the top supervisor for the agent part of the SNMP application. There is always one supervisor at each node with an SNMP agent (mas-
       ter agent or sub-agent).

EXPORTS

       start_sub_sup(Opts) -> {ok, pid()} | {error, {already_started, pid()}} | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Opts = [opt()]
		     opt() = {db_dir, string()} | ...

	      Starts a supervisor for the SNMP agent system without a master agent. The supervisor starts all  involved  SNMP  processes,  but	no
	      agent processes. Sub-agents should be started by calling start_sub_agent/3 .

	      db_dir is mandatory.

	      See configuration parameters for a description of the options.

       start_master_sup(Opts) -> {ok, pid()} | {error, {already_started, pid()}} | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Opts = [opt()]
		     opt() = {db_dir, string()} | {config, ConfOpts()} | ...
		     ConfOpts = [conf_opts()]
		     conf_opts() = {dir, string()} | ...
		     Reason = term()

	      Starts  a  supervisor for the SNMP agent system. The supervisor starts all involved SNMP processes, including the master agent. Sub-
	      agents should be started by calling start_subagent/3 .

	      db_dir is mandatory.

	      dir in config is mandatory.

	      See snmp config for a description of the options.

       start_sub_agent(ParentAgent,Subtree,Mibs) -> {ok, pid()} | {error, Reason}

	      Types  ParentAgent = pid()
		     SubTree = oid()
		     Mibs = [MibName]
		     MibName = [string()]

	      Starts a sub-agent on the node where the function is called. The snmpa_supervisor must be running.

	      If the supervisor is not running, the function fails with the reason badarg .

       stop_sub_agent(SubAgent) -> ok | no_such_child

	      Types  SubAgent = pid()

	      Stops the sub-agent on the node where the function is called. The snmpa_supervisor must be running.

	      If the supervisor is not running, the function fails with the reason badarg .
