[Devmon] Monitoring Insight Manager

[Aiello, S. \(G. C. consultant\) <ste...@ge...>]

Hello All,
=20
I have come across an interesting issue. I have written a template to
monitor the Insight Management that run on Compaq/HP servers. I have 3
tests in total; cim, array, & iml. The iml test is what is causing the
issue. IML (Integrate Management Log) is a log of hardware events. If
the IML is empty, and I walk the OID I will see:

.1.3.6.1.4.1.232.6.2.11.3.1.1
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.6.2.11.3.1.1 =3D No Such Instance currently
exists at this OID

Which makes sense since the log is empty. But when devmon queiries the
device, all my Insight Manager tests (cim, array, iml ) have issues.
Below is a snippet of my devmon.log

I am guessing that the somehow the status of "No SNMP data found" is not
being reset and thus casuing the other test snmp query test to fail ?

I guess I also need to ask for a feature request for a flag to pass for
a particular OID that being empty is ok...
