Circular reference to MIB being uploaded while creating a Basic Vendor Self-Certification in the UI on NetOps Portal

Products

• CA Infrastructure Management
• CA Performance Management - Usage and Administration

Issue/Introduction

When uploading MIB files to the UI the MIB may fail to compile if a supporting MIB file is not found. In this case it is prompting for the same MIB being uploaded.

Error: Failed to find mib module for <MIB> 

 

Environment

Ca Performance Management all supported versions.

Cause

Another MIB file uploaded previously contains the MIB file being uploaded

Resolution

In the MIB file you are uploading it will have a line like the following near the top:

NAME-OF-MIB-HERE-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN

 

On the Data Aggregator:

1) cd <DataAggregatorInstallDirectory>/apache-karaf-*.*.*/MIBDepot

2) Run:

grep "NAME-OF-MIB-HERE-MIB DEFINITIONS" *

3) If another file exists with the same line, remove the file from the Basic Vendor Certification UI upload dialog
     before uploading the MIB file again.
