It's not as simple as you might think. Using the GUI on the other system might be simpler and easier.
The polling parameters accessed by Options-->SNMP Configuration from the GUI, or by xnmsnmpconf from the command line, are actually kept in a small UNIX database, /usr/OV/conf/ovsnmp_db. This is a directory with several .pag and .dir files underneath it. To transfer it to another system you would have to tar up the directory and then untar it on the system. But that's not enough.
When you use the GUI and OK your way out, an event is generated which says the configuration has changed. This causes all interested parties such as netmon and snmpcollect to refresh their connection to the database. So after you have untarred the ovsnmp.db you would have to generate that event manually unless the daemons are down. You can do that by simply issuing
xnmsnmpconf -event
from the command line.
I would also issue
xnmsnmpconf -clearcache
to flush an entries stored in memory.

Hello,
We have 2 NetView servers running 7.15 FP1 and they are not automatically synchronized.
When I make changes to the polling cycle for individual devices or smartsets in one server <from gui - options, SNMP Configuration>, I have to duplicate the changes in the other server. I would rather just transfer the file(s) after I make changes on the first server.
Can anyone help me identify the file(s) to transfer?
Do I need to stop daemons before the transfer?
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Kevin Sperry
