Hello,

I have found an issue using the xnmloadmib on AIX Netview 7.1.3. The problem
appears to be with the FixPack1 software. The xnmloadmib file gets changed
when FixPack1 is installed and will not work when security is turned on. I
was recieving the following error. nvs_isClient Authorized (): permission
denied foe "xnmloadmib" authorized=0, status=0

There is no xnmloadmib2 file either.

The work around to this problem is to save a copy of xnmloadmib prior to
installing FixPack1. Then copy over the xnmloadmib to the directory (
usr/OV/security/C/Domains/registration). Also make a copy of xnmloadmib and
call it xnmloadmib2. Go into the file and change all of the occurrances from
xnmloadmib to xnmloadmib2.

This problem has been reported to IBM and the problem also exists on AIX
7.1.4. It appears that that apar PJ28749 is the causing the problem.

I hope this helps!

Jeff

xnmloadmib is called loadmibv2 on Windows.  Where did you find this
documented as xnmloadmib2?

But perhaps the real question is why are you trying to loading this MIB?
What do you intend to do with it?  There are three pairs of MIB loaders
and browsers in NetView, and the least useful of them all is loadmibv2.


I have never heard of the error you are getting on 7.1.3, since there are
no permissions on Windows and no security at all.  I would guess that if
anything you are having a memory problem, since the temp copy of the MIB
database is in memory.  It's also possible that you have another instance
of the executable running at the same time.

Hi all,
I have netview 7.1.4 on windows 2000 advance server.
When Installing mibs for peribit through command "loadmib" it is giving me
message "error defining object: found MODULE-IDENTITY".
Mib is using snmp v2. On the net I read that for snmp v2 the command used to
install mib is
xmnloadmib2.
This command is not working may be it is for unix.
On another server I am trying to load the mib through loadmib command which
has 7.1.3 it it giving me error "Unable to create work copy of MIB database.
Permission denied". I am logged in with netview user which is used for
service account, I tried with local administrator also.
Can somebody help me out.
