004: ZSMP-EVT-OSS-ERROR
Cause. A SNMP agent object changed state for one of the following reasons:
Effect. Object and operator messages are generally informational only.
Service messages reflect the SNMP agent’s ability to use a service. An unavailable
service reduces the SNMP agent’s ability to function as configured. An unwanted
service that becomes available can cause the SNMP agent to function in an
undesirable way.
Recovery. Object and Operator messages are informational only; no corrective
action is needed. Service state changes can require investigation of the
circumstances regarding the availability of the underlying resource.
004: ZSMP-EVT-OSS-ERROR
method-name
is the name of a function used internally by the SNMP agent.
location-number
is a numeric identifier for a specific location within the function.
OSS-function-name
is the name of an Open Systems Solutions, Inc., (OSS) ASN.1 function used to
encode and decode SNMP messages. This function, called by method-name,
generated the error.
OSS-err-num
is an encoding or decoding error returned by the specified function. For values, see
Table C-3.
Cause. One of the errors listed in Table 6-3 was returned to the SNMP agent by an
Open Systems Solutions, Inc., (OSS) ASN.1 function.
Effect. If the error is fatal, the agent stops running. Messages associated with nonfatal
errors are discarded.
Object
A component of the SNMP agent’s configuration defined in the
SNMP agent’s SNMPCTL file entered a different state.
Operator
An SCF command or SNMP Set request was issued against a
component of the SNMP agent’s configuration, causing it to move
to a different state.
Service
An underlying service that the component of the SNMP agent’s
configuration depends on became either available or unavailable.
