Hello all,
I am trying to load SNMP MIB files from Brocade, because I want to receive SNMP traps from those devices and by loading the MIB files, events will be properly formatted.
Vendor provides a package with 10 .mib files, and there are dependencies between them.
I went into 'MID Server > SNMP MIBs' and created 10 entries, one for each .mib file. Then I restarted MID server.
When I check MID server logs, I see errors like this:
2023-11-27 12:22:23 WARN (MIB Initializer) [SNMP_MIBs:85] MIB loader errors when loading MIB: BROCADE-MAPS-MIB
---line 22, column 10: couldn't find referenced MIB 'SW-MIB'
---line 293, column 3: undefined symbol 'swVfId'
---line 314, column 3: undefined symbol 'swVfId'
What is the best option to deal with these dependencies and ensure that MID server will load the MIB files in the right order?
Thanks in advance.

Agreed... its cumbersome and somewhat trial-and-error, unfortunately. I wish there was a way to have the system plow thru all the MIBS, have each MIB cross-ref other MIBs for dependency and deal with it there, before rebooting... looking for errors... adding more files... rebooting... etc.
Painful
