My experience is that the dlmodTable is incredibly fussy about how
you create new rows in it. (And not always very good about reporting
failures).
The most reliable approach I've discovered is as follows:
a) snmpget .... dlmodNextIndex.0
This tells you the index number that you should use - N.
Anything else will fail - probably without telling you :-(
b) snmpset .... dlmodStatus.N i create
This creates an empty row.....
c) snmpset .... dlmodName.N s controlSystem
snmpset .... dlmodPath.N s /path/to/controlSystem.so
.... and populates it.
(or you can safely combine these into a single 'snmpset' call)
d) snmpset .... dlmodStatus.N i load
This finally loads the dynamic module into the agent.
If loading it fails, this still returns success, and you'll
have to walk the dlmodTable to find out.
It is sometimes possible to combine some of these steps
(depending on the exact order in which the varbinds are processed),
but this list is the safest and most reliable.
> And module is not loaded. Why?
The module is *only* loaded by step 'd)', when you explicitly
ask for this to be done.
