CA Common Services supports SNMPv3 with DES encryption and SHA-5 and MD5
authentication, hopefully that works with your Solar Winds Orion server.
You define the use of encryption in the SNMPCNFG member for your ENFSNMPM
procedure (sample with good comments is in  CAW0OPTV dataset).  That would
be an easy change (not affecting OPS/MVS).
