You can't - the question simply doesn't make sense. With a scalar object, there is only one value, so it must come from *one* (sub-)agent. The other six will simply be unused. > Ofcourse, the snmp manager will only query the master agent, hence I want > all subagents to be queried by master agent and return the values. How? The snmp manager has asked for one value, so will be expecting one answer. How do you intend to return seven values instead of one? And what makes you think the manager would be able to cope with receiving more answers than it was expecting? > We are using default context across all agents. The only way to support multiple parallel versions of a scalar object would be to use different contexts. That way, the manager can choose which version they are interested in. I think you need to re-examine what you are trying to do. It simply doesn't make sense as you've described it here.
