Updating a MIB

1.

Download and copy MIBs and any matching .cfg files to the mibs directory. The mibs directory is
typically located at c:\program files\hp\systems insight manager\mibs for Windows
and at /opt/mx/mibs for Linux and HP-UX.

Note: If a .cfg file is available and no customizations have been made, proceed to step 2.

2.

Run mcompile to create and update any .cfg file that exists.

Note: If the old .cfg file had any customizations, these must be reapplied.

3.

Run mxmib -a

updatedfile.cfg to update the MIB data in the database.

Service trap and service MIB information

HP SIM ships with a version of the service MIB to support service traps sent by Open Service Event Manager
(OSEM) and Web-Based Enterprise Services (WEBES). The service MIB is comprised of the cpqservice.mib
and cpqservice.cfg files. To obtain the service MIB separately, see

http://h18023.www1.hp.com/

support/svctools/

and select Service MIB Zip file under WEBES or OSEM. The zip file contains the .mib

and .cfg files. HP recommends you review the readme.txt file contained in the zip file for compatibility
instructions.

Beginning with OSEM 1.3.6, the tool must be configured to generate the new trap type by accessing the
Internal Settings

for OSEM: HP SIM trap revision. WEBES sends the trap by default.

Presentation of SNMP traps in HP SIM

You can map a severity from a varbind to the event severity displayed in the event view. The mechanism
uses two keywords annotated as comments within the trap definition (VARBINDSEVERITY and
SEVERITYMAP

). The following is an example of a trap definition:
