Wouter, did you figure this out? It's not a problem I have ever seen
before.
Do you have any Netview patches on (5.1.1 or 5.1.2)?

Cordially,

====================================================
Hi List,

Netview V.5.1
AIX 4.3.2

When I try to define a Data Collection via Data Collection   & Thresholds:
SNMP,
I notice something interesting.
Some MIB instances cannot be collected in this way at all. What I mean is
that
the options to define the specific collection are greyed out, and thus
cannot be
selected.
An example:    mgmt.mib-2.interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifInOctets   doesn´t
allow
me to create a collection!

Real strange, because I have collected this value in this way before. I
just
don´t know why it acts so hostile this time...

Anybody know what I am missing?
