Load MIB file on startup slowing system and not completing [SOLVED]

[djex81]

I just updated to version 2.0-M3. I noticed "Loading MIB file on startup" does not complete and slows down the system. I did have custom MIB's installed so I removed them and restored the MIB's folder back to the originals and recompiled but that still didn't fix the issue.

UPDATE: This issue only seems to happen with a remote instance of the management console. The local console on the server works fine.

Hi,

we add more MIBs to standard distribution so maybe it just grows too large. Check that you are running MIB compiler with -z option (to produce compressed MIB file). Also, you can remove unneeded MIBs - good candidates are vendor MIBs that can be easily identified by name prefix:

A3COM-HUAWEI-* - Huawei/H3C switches
BAY-STACK-* - Nortel/Avaya BayStack switches
CISCO-* - Cisco switches and routers
DES*, DGS* - DLink switches
FOUNDRY-* - Foundry Networks switches
H3C-*, HH3C-* - HP A-series and H3C switches
NETSCREEN-* - Netscreen firewalls
NTWS-* - Nortel wireless
SYMBOL-*, WS-* - Symbol/Motorola wireless
VMWARE-* - VMWare

Best regards,
Victor

Thanks for the info. I removed some MIBs that I did not need and used the -z option and now the netmxs.mib files is ~5mb where it use to be ~45mb before. Works good now.
