NAME

       snmpa_local_db - The SNMP built-in database

DESCRIPTION

       The  module snmpa_local_db contains functions for implementing tables (and variables) using the SNMP built-in database. The database exists
       in two instances, one volatile and one persistent. The volatile database is implemented with ets. The persistent  database  is  implemented
       with dets.

       There is a scaling problem with this database.

	 * Insertions and deletions are inefficient for large tables.

       This problem is best solved by using Mnesia instead.

       The  following  functions  describe the interface to snmpa_local_db . Each function has a Mnesia equivalent. The argument NameDb is a tuple
       {Name, Db} where Name is the symbolic name of the managed object (as defined in the MIB), and Db is either volatile or persistent .  mnesia
       is not possible since all these functions are snmpa_local_db specific.

COMMON DATA TYPES

       In the functions defined below, the following types are used:

	 * NameDb = {Name, Db}

	 * Name = atom(), Db = volatile | persistent

	 * RowIndex = [int()]

	 * Cols = [Col] | [{Col, Value}], Col = int(), Value = term()

       where RowIndex denotes the last part of the OID, that specifies the index of the row in the table. Cols is a list of column numbers in case
       of a get operation, and a list of column numbers and values in case of a set operation.

EXPORTS

       dump() -> ok | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Reason = term()

	      This function can be used to manually dump the database to file.

       match(NameDb, Pattern)

	      Performs an ets/dets matching on the table. See Stdlib documentation, module ets, for a description of Pattern and the  return  val-
	      ues.

       print()
       print(TableName)
       print(TableName, Db)

	      Types  TableName = atom()

	      Prints  the  contents  of  the database on screen. This is useful for debugging since the STANDARD-MIB and OTP-SNMPEA-MIB (and maybe
	      your own MIBs) are stored in snmpa_local_db .

	      TableName is an atom for a table in the database. When no name is supplied, the whole database is shown.

       table_create(NameDb) -> bool()

	      Creates a table. If the table already exist, the old copy is destroyed.

	      Returns false if the NameDb argument is incorrectly specified, true otherwise.

       table_create_row(NameDb, RowIndex, Row) -> bool()

	      Types  Row = {Val1, Val2, ..., ValN}
		     Val1 = Val2 = ... = ValN = term()

	      Creates a row in a table. Row is a tuple with values for all columns, including the index columns.

       table_delete(NameDb) -> void()

	      Deletes a table.

       table_delete_row(NameDb, RowIndex) -> bool()

	      Deletes the row in the table.

       table_exists(NameDb) -> bool()

	      Checks if a table exists.

       table_get_row(NameDb, RowIndex) -> Row | undefined

	      Types  Row = {Val1, Val2, ..., ValN}
		     Val1 = Val2 = ... = ValN = term()

	      Row is a tuple with values for all columns, including the index columns.

NAME

       snmp_notification_mib - Instrumentation Functions for SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB

DESCRIPTION

       The  module snmp_notification_mib implements the instrumentation functions for the SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB, and functions for configuring the
       database.

       The configuration files are described in the SNMP User's Manual.

EXPORTS

       configure(ConfDir) -> void()

	      Types  ConfDir = string()

	      This function is called from the supervisor at system start-up.

	      Inserts all data in the configuration files into the database and destroys all old rows with StorageType volatile . The rows created
	      from the configuration file will have StorageType nonVolatile .

	      If  an  error is found in the configuration file, it is reported using the function config_err/2 of the error report module, and the
	      function fails with reason configuration_error .

	      ConfDir is a string which points to the directory where the configuration files are found.

	      The configuration file read is: notify.conf .

       reconfigure(ConfDir) -> void()

	      Types  ConfDir = string()

	      Inserts all data in the configuration files into the database and destroys all old data, including the rows  with  StorageType  non-
	      Volatile . The rows created from the configuration file will have StorageType nonVolatile .

	      Thus, the data in the SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB, after this function has been called, is from the configuration files.

	      If  an  error is found in the configuration file, it is reported using the function config_err/2 of the error report module, and the
	      function fails with reason configuration_error .

	      ConfDir is a string which points to the directory where the configuration files are found.

	      The configuration file read is: notify.conf .

       add_notify(Name, Tag, Type) -> Ret

	      Types  Name = string()
		     Tag = string()
		     Type = trap | inform
		     Ret = {ok, Key} | {error, Reason}
		     Key = term()
		     Reason = term()

	      Adds a notify definition to the agent config. Equivalent to one line in the notify.conf file.

       delete_notify(Key) -> Ret

	      Types  Key = term()
		     Ret = ok | {error, Reason}
		     Reason = term()

	      Delete a notify definition from the agent config.
