https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/procurve-mibs/m-p/3378468#M5893 Hello<BR /><BR />Have I understood correctly that I need to import mibs for hp procurve 4000 switches after install of hp sim 4.1 and that i have to do at the command prompt with mcompile and mxmib? When I do that I get a lot of errors when doing mxmib -a name.cfg. <BR /><BR />"IMPORTING CFG hpicfSntp.cfg<BR />Error: File 'hpicfSntp.cfg' Error reading MIB: MIB node has no parent Line: 70<BR />AN ERROR OCCURRED EXECUTING THE COMMAND"<BR /><BR />Doesn't feel right to me, whats wrong?<BR /><BR />/Magnus Tue, 14 Sep 2004 04:07:58 GMT Magnus Appelgren 2004-09-14T04:07:58Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/procurve-mibs/m-p/3378468#M5893 Hello<BR /><BR />Have I understood correctly that I need to import mibs for hp procurve 4000 switches after install of hp sim 4.1 and that i have to do at the command prompt with mcompile and mxmib?

I imported the HP procurve 5308XL mibs a while ago.<BR /><BR />Basically, they are full of syntax errors and missing components. It took me days to import all the necessary mibs (the ones listed in the readme for my switch) because I had to debug them and download many missing files that were referenced. (most are RFC's and Cisco mibs).<BR /><BR />The HP mibs also lack trap definitions so most traps will not give you the error message when you receive them from your switch. SIM will give you a generic informational error instead.<BR /><BR />I dunno if the procurve 4000 mibs are any better but the 5308XL mibs were pretty much a waste of time since they dont have trap configurations.
