Hi Ray,

I am successful in querying SNMP information from OS/390 Communication
Server V2.6 using the command osnmp in the OpenEdition Shell. I get the
MIB-2 objects of  system, interfaces, ip, icmp, tcp, udp, snmp, ifXtable,
atm and from the private MIB I get dpiPort, sa and ibmMVs
(1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6).
According to OS/390 eNetwork Communications Server: IP User's Guide V2.5
(GC31-8514), Appendix D, most of the MIB objects, especially those you
can't get are provided by the SNMP subagent. So I assume, that you have a
problem with the communication between the agent and the subagent. Take a
look at the profile of your mainframe ip stack and use the SACONFIG
statement to configure the SNMP subagent. Is it enabled at all?

Have you checked the directory /usr/lpp/tcpip/samples in the HFS of OS/390
OpenEdition? There you can find some MIB description files. But I am not
sure, if it includes the one you need.

Hope this helps.
Sylvia

Hello all,

Has anyone been successful in querying snmp information from the
mainframe using TME10 Netview for Unix?

I am trying to set up MVS OS390 Version 2.5 to allow Netview on an
RS/6000 to get snmp information from the mainframe IP stacks.  We are
now using /etc/snmpd.conf to configure traps and access, but for some
reason, when we walk the mib from the Netview server, we only get 40
lines or so before we reach the end of the MIB tree!!  We can't get
anything except system and snmp and a few ibm MIBS.

This snmpd.conf file is a different beast than I am used to in UNIX, but
I am pretty sure we have it set up properly, and we should be able to
see the whole mib tree.

Another problem we have is loading the v1 mib file "mvstcpip.mib".
Apparently there should be another mib file somewhere that defines the
needed parent "mvsSNMPagent".   I searched the usual places for MIBs,
but am unable to find it.

Thanks to anyone who can help.
