Have you tried:
nvsetup -> Databases -> Clear Databases -> Clear SNMPCollect Databases
?
Kind regards
Oliver

Hi lists,
Can anyone tell me the procedure to clear the Snmpcollect_db.mdb database
file in Nv 7.1.3 under Windows.
Wish you all a happy new year.
Thanks in advance,
John F

Dear James,
Thanks a lot for your response. I did try out the method of clearing the
snmpdatabase suggested by you and have run into a problem. The on screen
message, when I click on purge the database now, from nvsetup, shows that
the database is being purged and then when I click on OK, informs me that
the database cannot be purged. The file size also shows no change.
I have also tried to do this from snmpodump -xn option, but have not met
with success. snmpcdump shows up as an unknown command on windows.
Could I get assistance please.
Thanks,
John

Unlike UNIX, snmpcollect on Windows automatically collects MIB data from
objects in your network by default. It is stored in the database you have
identified -- .mdb files are MS Jet relational databases, which can be
read with Microsoft Access. NetView also provides tools to manipulate
the data. If you aren't interested in the MIB data then you can suspend
the collection of it, using Start --> Tasks --> Collect MIB data. Then
nothing new will be added the database. You can purge the database
manually using the snmpodump command, "snmpodump -x<number of entries to
keep>". You can also schedule it automatically from nvsetup -> Files and
drop down the file window so that it says "Schedule SNMPCollect data to
delete"
You can also display the data using the snmpodump and snmpcdump commands.
Type them from the command line with a question mark "snmpodump -?" to see
summaries of the options. I recommend that you spend some time with
books available under \usr\ov\books, particularly the User's Guide, to see
what this facility can do for you.

Please respond to nv-l
Hello lists,
NV 7.1.3 under Windows 2000
The file Snmpcollect_db.mdb (under \usr\ov\databases\odbc) is growing in
size. How to clear it? Also can anyone inform me which are all the files
that are to be cleared periodically and the procedure to clear them ?
Thanks,
John
