PM71103: SNMP MIB IBMTCPIPMVSPKTTRACETABLE: NO SUCH OBJECT (FOR EXAMPLE, NETVIEW GETS UNKNOWN OBJECT IDENTIFIER (SUB-ID NOT FOUND)...)

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• When using SNMP to get the value for the MIB object
  ibmTcpipMvsPktTraceTable, errors such as "No such object"
  might be returned. If using NETVIEW to initiate a OSA and PKT
  trace, the following error is shown:
  
  ibmTcpipMvsPktTraceTable: Unknown Object Identifier (Sub-id
  id not found: (top) -> ibmTcpipMvsPktTraceTable)
  

Local fix

• In the local copy of SEZAINST(MIBDESC), change the following
  entries from:
  ibmMvsPktTraceTable       1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.19.2.2.3.4.    table 0
  ibmMvsPktTraceEntry       1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.19.2.2.3.4.1.  table 0
  
  to:
  ibmTcpipMvsPktTraceTable  1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.19.2.2.3.4.    table 0
  ibmTcpipMvsPktTraceEntry  1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.19.2.2.3.4.1.  table 0
  KEYWORDS:
  SNMP MIB MIBDESC NETVIEW ibmMvsPktTraceTable ibmMvsPktTraceEntry
  ibmTcpipMvsPktTraceTable ibmTcpipMvsPktTraceEntry SEZAINST
  UNKNOWN OBJECT EZABZ003
