README for demo_module_12

********************************************************************

This code example shows how to generate code templates from a MIB for

the System Management Agent, and how to generate code templates from

a MIB in Solstice Enterprise Agents (SEA). This information should be

helpful if you are migrating a SEA subagent to use as a module with the

System Management Agent.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NOTE: You must have installed the SEA Software Developer's Kit to use

this demo. The SEA SDK includes the mibcodegen utility used to generate

templates from MIBs for SEA.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

See the Solaris System Management Agent Developer's Guide for more

information about migrating SEA subagents. The guide explains how to

use the templates produced in this example.

How to Use the demo_module_12 Code Example

===========================================

The demo_module_12 code example includes the following files, by default

located in the directory /usr/demo/sma_snmp/demo_module_12.

Files:

o EXAMPLE-MIB.txt - Sample MIB used in this demo

o runmib2c - Script that runs mib2c on the MIB

o runmibcodegen - Script that runs the SEA mibcodegen utility

To set up your environment for the demo:

1. Copy the demo code to a directory for which you have write permission.

For example:

% cp -R /usr/demo/sma_snmp/demo_module_12 /home/username/demo

2. Create a mibs directory that you can use to store MIB files for the

demo code examples, if you have not already done so.

For example:

% mkdir /home/username/demo/mibs

3. Set your PATH environment variable to include the appropriate paths, so that

needed binaries can be found during the compilation process.

For example, in the csh:

% setenv PATH .:/usr/bin:$PATH

4. Change to the directory where you copied the demo_module_12 files.

For example:

% cd /home/username/demo/demo_module_12

5. Copy the EXAMPLE-MIB.txt file to the mibs directory you created for the

demos.

For example:

% cp EXAMPLE-MIB.txt /home/username/demo/mibs

6. Set your MIBS and MIBDIRS environment variables to

include the appropriate paths.

For example, in the csh:

% setenv MIBDIRS .:/home/username/demo/mibs:/etc/sma/snmp/mibs

% setenv MIBS +EXAMPLE-MIB

To generate SMA template code from the EXAMPLE-MIB:

1. Use the runmib2c script to run mib2c on groups in the MIB.

For example:

% ./runmib2c

writing to scalarTypes.h

writing to scalarTypes.c

running indent on scalarTypes.h

indent: Command line: unknown parameter "-orig"

running indent on scalarTypes.c

indent: Command line: unknown parameter "-orig"

writing to tableType.h

writing to tableType.c

running indent on tableType.h

indent: Command line: unknown parameter "-orig"

running indent on tableType.c

indent: Command line: unknown parameter "-orig"

NOTE: Ignore the messages about the unknown parameter "-orig".

The script runs mib2c twice, with the appropriate configuration options,

to produce the following files:

scalarTypes.c

scalarTypes.h

tableType.c

tableType.h

To generate SEA template code from the EXAMPLE-MIB:

1. Use the runmibcodegen script to run mibcodegen on the MIB.

For example:

% ./runmibcodegen

Creating example_tree.c ...

Creating example_stub.h ...

Creating example_stub.c ...

Creating example_rwTableEntry.c ...

Creating example_appl.c ...

Creating example_trap.c ...

The mibcodegen utility creates the template files listed above.

The System Management Agent Developer's Guide describes the template

files produced in this demo, and how you can use them to determine how

to modify the SMA templates to create your module.
