Import MIB files

Ideal process flow of MIB import: User uploads the MIBs to OpenManage Enterprise > OpenManage Enterprise parses the MIBs > OpenManage Enterprise searches the database for any already available similar traps > OpenManage Enterprise displays MIB file data. The maximum file size of MIB that can be imported is 3 MB. The OpenManage Enterprise Audit log history records every import and removal of MIBs.

NOTE: To perform any tasks on OpenManage Enterprise, you must have necessary user privileges. See Role-based OpenManage Enterprise user privileges.

  1. Click MIB > Import MIB.
  2. In the Import MIB dialog box, in the Upload MIB Files section, click Choose File to select a MIB file.

    If the MIB has import statements that are resolved by external MIBs, a message is displayed.

    1. Click Resolve Types. Resolve the MIB types. See Remove MIB files.
    2. Click Finish. If the MIB file is Dell EMC owned, a message indicates that the MIB is shipped with the product and cannot be modified.
  3. Click Next.
  4. In the View Traps section, a list of MIB files is displayed with the following information:
    • Alert category of the trap. You can edit the category to align with the OpenManage Enterprise category definitions. See Edit MIB traps.
    • Trap name is read-only. Defined by the third-party device.
    • Severity levels of an alert: Critical, Warning, Information, and Normal.
    • Alert message associated with an alert.
    • Trap OID is read-only and unique.
    • 'New' indicates that the trap is imported for the first time by OpenManage Enterprise. Already imported traps are indicated as 'Imported'. 'Overwrite' indicates the traps whose definition is rewritten because of an import operation.
    To edit the default alert categories or severity level of a MIB file, see Edit MIB traps. To delete MIB files, select the corresponding check boxes, and then click Delete Trap. The MIB files are deleted and the list of MIB files is updated.
  5. Click Finish. The MIB files are parsed, imported to OpenManage Enterprise, and then listed under the MIN tab.

NOTE: If you import a MIB, and then import it again, the MIB status is shown as IMPORTED. However, if you re-import a MIB file that is deleted, the trap status is indicated as NEW.

NOTE: Traps that are already imported to OpenManage Enterprise cannot be imported.

NOTE: MIB files shipped by default with OpenManage Enterprise cannot be imported.

NOTE: Events that are generated after the trap is imported will be formatted and displayed according to the new definition.
