Hi,

By default, on AIX 5.2, aixmibd subagent are desactivated. This subagent
handle IBM-AIX-MIB's OID. You can find the MIB file
in : /usr/samples/snmpd/aixmib.my

To enable aixmibd agent, you should change this following line
in /etc/snmpdv3.conf :

--( /etc/snmpdv3.conf )--
# exclude aixmibd managed MIBs from the default view
VACM_VIEW defaultView        1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.191        - excluded -
---8<---

Just replace "excluded" word by "included" word and start aixmibd
sub-agent :

# startsrc -s aixmibd


Regards,
