HP SIM V5.1 User Guide (356920-009, January 2007)

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.
