shouldn't you be able to use xnmsnmpconf -export/import to
accomplish this database synchronization?
Yeah. You are right. I left out the "conf" in ovsnmp.conf_db
But as Leslie
said, the process I gave you is hardly worth the trouble unless you've made
dramatic changes on the primary server.

OK,
I did not find ovsnmp_db but I did find ovsnmp.conf_db. Is this
the correct directory?
Thanks,

Subject: Re: [NV-L] SNMP polling
config file(s)
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
