Hi Ludo, thanks.  But I'm still not sure if i'm using snmptranslate.exe 
correctly.

Please see this article - 
http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/networking_2ndEd/snmp/ch10_03.htm

"Basically, you construct something that looks like an enterprise OID. 
It's best to look at an example. One such trap is rdbmsOutOfSpace, which 
is defined in the RDBMS MIB. Its complete OID is .1.3.6.1.2.1.39.2.2 
(.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.rdbmsMIB.rdbmsTraps.rdbmsOutOfSpace). 
To send this trap, which is really an SNMPv2 notification, you would use 
everything up to rdbmsTraps as the enterprise OID, and the entire object 
ID as the specific trap number."

I'm using this example to check if snmptranslate.exe works.  Here it 
says .1.3.6.1.2.1.39.2.2 should return 
"mib-2.rdbmsMIB.rdbmsTraps.rdbmsOutOfSpace".

I copied RDBMS MIB which i downloaded from 
http://www.oidview.com/mibs/0/RDBMS-MIB.html to C:\usr\share\snmp\mibs. 

Deleted .index and then run:

snmptranslate .1.3.6.1.2.1.39.2.2
 > SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.39.2.2

".39.2.2" is not decoded to "rdbmsMIB.rdbmsTraps.rdbmsOutOfSpace".

Any thoughts?  Thanks again.  :)

Rgds,
Joshua

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
