How to import MIBs in Zabbix
 
I have a Library IBM 2900 backup system that can only be monitored via SNMP v1, v2c or v3. I added a host in the zabbix server and created a template to be used for it and added a MIB file in /usr/share/snmp/mibs. But unfortanetly I cannot view MIB itens on Zabbix, only via snmpwalk or other snmpd tools. I've searched and tested some tools for Zabbix, but the most part were for Zabbix 1.8.x and I'm using Zabbix 2.0.9.

Is there a way to import MIB itens to Zabbix 2.0.9?

Not sure if its good for 2.0.9 but the website states something about "adpoted for 2.0" https://github.com/atimonin/snmpbuilder

As fas as I know there is no native OID viewer withing zabbix. Also there is a discovery section of OIDs on the documentation https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...y_of_snmp_oids

Else you have to check on your template and maybe change some names so you can view the oids when viewing the template or even latest data.

MIBs are specific to snmp, NOT zabbix.

...and putting that question into Google pulls up handy links at the Zabbix forums:
https://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15118
https://www.zabbix.com/wiki/howto/mo...p/snmp_builder

...along with how-to's and instructions. Habitual hit it on the head...MIB's are for SNMP, and since Zabbix USES SNMP, you have to put the MIB's in the right place, and configure things to be used.

Thanks, @zhjim. I didn't know this version of snmpbuilder. I managed to install snmpbuilder and I can select the MIB and add itens to Templates on the configuration tab. I think this solve my problem. Thank you very much!
