I have the same issue with HP switches and MIB downloaded form HP site.

However it does get data from HP switches via SNMP when using default Zabbix HP template, so SNMP by itself works.

Just noticed you are another user having issues with the HP mibs. I can't get it to work with any of the HP mibs either. Have you had any luck yet?

Look promising but does not work for me. Runs very slow. The reason is in the apache error.log, same MIB problems. And I cannot get proposed items by clicking item on the oid view.

I have downloaded 100% of Cisco MIBs but still get errors.

hp mibs are quite buggy. try using them with snmpget or walk, and fix any issues they report - maybe that helps.

Here is a txt file of the output from running 'snmpwalk -v 2c HOST -c public > hp_procurve_5412-snmpwalk.txt'

404 Not Found

http://ooz.net/~elvar/stor/hp_procurve_5412-snmpwalk.txt

Based on this, does that give you any info as to how to make snmp_builder work correctly?

It looks like it's just using the standard SNMP MIB's. Did you copy the HP mibs to the directory net-snmp traverses for mibs? I also found the mibs could not be in a sub directory.

Another option is to call the mib explicitly using the -m option (i think). That will force the loading of that module for the traverse. The module name is not always the filename, you may need to look in the mib file. I'm sorry but I don't recall the string that's used to define the name.

Yes, all the HP mibs are in the /usr/share/snmp/mibs dir and not in subdirs. I have not tried specifying the mibs myself though. I'll try and give that a whirl.

Thanks for the replies!

Does http://ooz.net/~elvar/stor/HP_ProCur...ing_Order.html provide anything useful for getting snmp_builder to work with the HP mibs? This addon would make life so much easier for me if it worked with HP mibs considering that's about all I need to work with right now snmp wise

snmpbuilder work with MIB files to translate SNMP Oid Name into SNMP Oid number. Zabbix work with oid number so it not a problem if your Mibs absent.

smpbuilder is nothing but a series of snmp commands. So if snmp commands fails, it fails too.

So far, most problem is Mib files and Mib directories.

First you must make sure edit first line of snmpbuilder to correct your system setting.

define('MIBS_ALL_PATH', '/home/zabbix/public_html/snmp_builder/mibs:/usr/share/snmp/mibs');

In my ubutu, default mib path is /usr/share/snmp/mibs but in other system, it's different. Without default mib path, snmptranslate can not lookup predefined snmp values. In my TODOs, I'll try to detect the default path to solve this problem.

Second, a MIB may depends on other MIBs so missing included one snmptranslate will fail to work.

A simple test, you must try in command prompt:
snmptranslate -Ts -M <your mibs_all_path> -m <your mib>

If it can list the tree of your mib, it work in my tool.

Hey guys, my github's here: http://github.com/giapnguyen/snmpbuilder

I checked HP mibs, it's ok but we need nelsonab's patch because in hp mib file, module name not same with file name

for vendor mibs, it rarely is. module name usually is first uncommented string, followed by "DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN", for example :

Code:

UPS-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN

I try Cisco ITP MIB, and it seems that snmp_builder.php incorrectly handles indices?

No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging
cgspLinkReason: Unknown Object Identifier (Sub-id not found: (top) -> cgspLinkReason)
cgspLinkReason."TSF-INSTANCE.TO-TSS-ITP.0": Unknown Object Identifier (Index out of range: "TSF-INSTANCE.TO-TSS-ITP.0 (cgspInstNetwork))
USAGE: snmptranslate [OPTIONS] OID [OID]...

TSF-INSTANCE.TO-TSS-ITP.0 is oid eccoded into "[len byte].[string in bytes].[len byte2].[string2 in bytes].0"

I can see the OID view table, and when I click an entry (cgspLinkReason) for above index, I get the error and nothing shows on item-list.

I will attempt to patch using Nelsonab's code, wish me luck.

I'm still work on weird index value. Get new snmp_builder.php from github http://github.com/giapnguyen/snmpbuilder to see it fix your problem. If not please attach your mib.

New snmp_builder.php will fix the module name problem. (I don't use Nelsonab code because it parse whole mib file. My code stop when it find module name - it suppose that 1 module in 1 file??? correct me if i'm wrong). HP mib work on my zabbix now

It also fix danrog patch for index.

It does not seem to resolve - here is MIB information from snmp_builder Information tab.

http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseMIB.do?local=en&step=2&submitClicked=true&mibName=CISCO-ITP-GSP-MIB#dependencies

CISCO-ITP-GSP-MIB::cgspLinkTable
cgspLinkTable OBJECT-TYPE
-- FROM CISCO-ITP-GSP-MIB
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION "A table of links for each Signalling

I've attached the image (server & community masked) - when I click first row of cgspLinkState (turns yellow) I just get snmptranslate -error to apache's error.log.

Is there any way to capture the command line sent to snmptranslate?

This fixes my problem with being able to load the HP mibs but I'm not able to actually pull any data with any of the HP mibs. I also tried loading up Fortinet mibs for Fortigate firewalls and I'm not able to get any data using those either. When you tried the HP mibs, did you actually test them on any HP devices by chance? For example, if I load up the HP-MEMPROC-MIB I get nothing returned for anything HP specific. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but I've tried every possible option under the HP specific sections.

Thanks for your continued work on this addon, I appreciate it!
