4135.0. "Emulex MIB ??" by KERNEL::MACLEAN (Sandie,Nets & Comms,UK CSC) Tue Nov 24 1992 11:33

Hi!,

I have a customer who has an EMULEX MIB - supplied  by Emulex not too
surprisingly!,which he is trying to Compile on an MCC v1.2 4000 Node.

In the Mib file definition,where it appears to fall over is on the line 
para OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {experimental 21}    and the error detailed 
is "Parent Object  Experimental  not found"


....Our Own Parallel_Exp_Mibdef.txt in Mcc_common contains exactly the 
same line which compiles with no error...So,do we know Who Supports this
MIB?-Emulex themselves ?...anyone Internal to Digital ?....Any Pointers
for contact names or Information much appreciated !!

	The mib translator is case-sensitive. Does the object appear as
	"Experimental" or "experimental" (as it should be).

	The other question I have is, is there  only one mib defined in
	the file, or more ? I've seen cases where people would put two mibs
	in one file, which would generate the error you are seeing.
	Search for "experimental" and see if it occurs anywhere else
	in the file.

    Hi Rahul!,
    
    First of all Happy Thanks-Giving !!,
    
    Here's the output as requested....you are right it does appear a number
    of times and the error we see relates to the 2nd occurrance...
    
   $Sea EMULEX_MIBDEF.TXT experimental
                  experimental, Counter, TimeTicks, Gauge
    char    OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { experimental 19 }
    para    OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { experimental 21 }
    rs232    OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { experimental 20 }
    
   The customer has sent me the Emulex Mib Definition file via X25 Mail
   which I shall mail to you ....
    
    Regards as always,

		Emulex seems to have combined three separate mibs and put then
	onto a single file. "char", "para", and "rs232" are three experimentals
	mibs which are already shipped with the DECmcc kit. You will find
	them in the following files :

	CHAR_EXP_MIBDEF.TXT
	PARALLEL_EXP_MIBDEF.TXT
	RS232_EXP_MIBDEF.TXT

	The VMS location is MCC_COMMON and on Ultrix you will find them
	in the directory /usr/mcc/mcc_system. So load the three mibs into
	the dictionary and you will be able to manage Emulex devices.
