Using the SNMP Agent
Loading MIBs in the MIB Database
Follow the procedure below to load MIBs in the MIB database while
running HP OpenView. For more complete information refer to the
Managing MIB Data section of the HP OpenView Manual.
1
Select the Options:Load/Upload MIBs:SNMP menu item, the
MIB Load/Upload MIBs:SNMP dialog box appears, listing the
MIBs currently loaded.
2
Click the Load button. The Load MIB from File dialog box
appears, listing the files in the default directory.
3
Browse the CI/O Setup Diskette and double-click the MIB file
you want to load. The MIB is automatically loaded and the
MIB Load/Unload MIBs dialog box reappears, showing the
list of currently loaded MIBs.
4
The MIB name is now included in the Loaded MIBs scrollable
list.
If a MIB does not load properly, you will receive an error mes-
sage. The problem could be one of the following:
–
A syntax error in the MIB. The MIB loader error message
contains the MIB where the error is occurring.
–
The vendor’s MIB. For example, the vendor’s MIB might
not match the version for the device that is on the network.
5
Click Close to exit this operation.
