Hello (again)
Ana,
As I recall, sometimes there were some prerequisite
MIBS that had to be loaded into the newly imported MIB file (veritas in your
case).
If a dependency file is missing this could cause
the mib2trap command to hang or cause errors.
When we added some new Cisco devices we had to
concatenate a couple of files together manually, the same with the Brocade Fiber
Channel MIBS for monitoring the switch fabric. Then the mib2trap command
would run & create the scripts which run the addtrap command - the command
that actually updates trapd.conf.
Good Luck,
--Dermott
p.s. say hi to everyone
;)

Load mibs
James,
I am
getting the same errors when trying to run the MIB2TRAP command for the
Veritas mib 1 or Mib2 mibs
we
had just upgraded our NetView servers to 6.03.

Please send your replies to the list.
I am sorry but I cannot personally pursue user
problems from the list.
You
will have to call Support and open a problem with them.
Personally, I have never seen a core as in mib2trap
at any level. Generally speaking, if you can load the MIB then
mib2trap can parse it, though it may not produce output if the required
constructs are not present. We did make enhancements to mib2trap in
6.0.3, and you might want to just get that level and apply it, since you
will have to sooner or later anyway. If the Support guys you talk to
cannot reproduce your problem at the 6.0.3 level, then that is what they
will tell you to do -- get 6.0.3.
You can of course still read the MIB and take a shot at defining the
traps manually if you want to. If you make a mistake, there is not
real harm done. When the real trap comes in, you will see a "NO FMT
FOUND" message in trapd.log and in the events window which will tell you all
about the trap and you can use that to fix your trial definition.
Sorry but that's all I can offer you.
Good luck.

Loading a MIB will not alter trapd.conf in
NetView. Never has. You must
run /usr/OV/bin/mib2trap
to create an addtrap script which, if there are
TRAP-TYPE or
NOTIFICATION-TYPE statements in that MIB file, can then be
used to update
trapd.conf.
If you look at trapd.conf with xnmtrap and click OK when
you leave, this
will change the date on trapd.conf, as it is saved
again.
I don't understand what "MIBS" is. If you want your new
MIB o be copied
into /usr/OV/snmp_mibs, you must do that yourself.
You
didn't say whether your MIB is SNMP V1 Or SNMP V2. Remember that
if
V2, and you use xnmloadmib2 to load it, then you must use xnmbrowser2
to
view it. There are two loaders and two browsers and they do not
share the
same database.
Hope this helps
