This may be sort of related. I've noticed that a number of the mibs
delivered with Netview now have a couple of records added near the top,
along with instructions to uncomment them for mib2trap. These added records
appear to handle higher-up missing oids. I'm pretty sure they were Cisco
mibs.
When I followed those instructions, mib2trap worked fine. I re-commented
them for loading.

Ooops. Well, I admit that I didn't read that far. Sorry, my bad.
I'd say that mib2trap probably produced output but that it lacks the -i
field for the enterprise oid so the addtraps won't work until that is
provided.
So it is the case that there is a missing definition.
But that's common with mib2trap when the MIB isn't self-contained. It
needs to start with an entry which locates it under the enterprise tree,
1.3.6.1.4.1 in order to build that enterprise oid correctly. So if a
prior MIB s needed, either you have to concatenate the two MIBs into one
first, or you have to add a couple of OBJECT IDENTIFIER statements to the
MIB to provide that location. In fact this is so common that there are
comments about it in
/usr/OV/snmp_mibs/READMES/cisco.readme.
But that brings up another question about this case all together. Why do
it in the first place? I didn't notice that this cisco MIB was one we
already ship. That makes running mib2trap on this Cisco MIB pointless.
All the traps contained in the Cisco MIBs which occur in the
/usr/OV/snmp_mibs directory are ALREADY defined in trapd.conf, and in more
detail than what mib2trap will provide. So there is no need to run
mib2trap on them at all, and if you do, and then you run the addtraps, you
will likely lose some formatting which is already provided. Go take a
look at these traps in xnmtrap and you'll see what I mean.

I'm not brave enough to take the bet but you've got my curiosity going.
The messages at the end say the enterprise OIDs for the traps have not
been
resolved. Aren't these needed for the addtrap? And aren't the messages
saying the top of the MIB itself cannot be resolved (ciscoFlashMIB, which
I
presume needs the usual cisco-smi)?
