mib2trap works on files, not on the loaded database per se.
        mib2trap <MIB file name> <output file> <baroc file prefix>
so it does not matter whether you have loaded the precursor MIBs or not.

In this case, the error messages mean that the definitions in the VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB are not sufficient to define all that you need.  My guess is that you require what is in the VMWARE-ROOT-MIB as well.  So what you have to do is to combine those MIBs into one big file and run mib2trap on that.

So I would edit the VMWARE-ROOT-MIB and after it says END, copy into it the VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB.  Then run
        mib2trap VMWARE-ROOT-MIB VMWARE.addtrap  VMWARE

This is the UNIX syntax.  The Windows version requires that your output file name end in ".bat"  so I would change "VMWARE.addtrap" to "VMWARE.bat"

Using the baroc file syntax will be very helpful if you plan on sending the trap to TEC.  In 7.1.5 mib2trap was altered to create much more elaborate trap definitions and for Windows, to build OID and CDS files for use with the tecad adapter.

Hope this helps,

[NV-L] VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB





Hi all,

I have some troubles to add the VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB in Netview.

I have successfully loaded in Netview:

                VMWARE-ROOT-MIB.mib

                VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB.mib

When I tried to execute mib2trap am Error message :

./mib2trap /usr/OV/snmp_mibs/VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB.mib /tmp/VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB.trap

Warning: The mib description doesn't seem to be consistent.

 Some nodes couldn't be linked under the "iso" tree.

 These nodes are left:

Left-over node vpxdObjValue ::= { vmwTraps 306 } (1)

Left-over node vpxdNewStatus ::= { vmwTraps 305 } (1)

Left-over node vpxdOldStatus ::= { vmwTraps 304 } (1)

Left-over node vpxdVMName ::= { vmwTraps 303 } (1)

Left-over node vpxdHostName ::= { vmwTraps 302 } (1)

Left-over node vpxdTrapType ::= { vmwTraps 301 } (1)

Left-over node vmConfigFile ::= { vmwTraps 102 } (1)

Left-over node vmID ::= { vmwTraps 101 } (134)

Enterprise object id not found for trap vmPoweredOn, (6,1).Enterprise object id not found for trap vmPoweredOff, (6,2).Enterprise object id not found for trap vmHBLost, (6,3).Enterprise object id not found for trap vmHBDetected, (6,4).Enterprise object id not found for trap vmSuspended, (6,5).Enterprise object id not found for trap vpxdTrap, (6,201).

Do you have some Ideas to help ?

Thanks
