"over" the HP-provided agent.   There's no problem about installing the
two systems side-by-side, as they will use completely different files.

You don't need to disable the Net-SNMP agent - unless you explicitly start

This question doesn't make sense.

No - installing Net-SNMP will not affect the HP agent or HP-UX mibs.

That's fine.
Compile and install the software, and then start the "snmptrapd"
processes (with a suitable configuration).   That should provide
the facilities you are requested.
