SystemView Agent DMI Programmer's Guide

This book is designed as a programmer's guide for the IBM SystemView Agent Version 1 program (hereafter referred to as SystemView Agent). SystemView Agent provides access to system components that have been defined according to the Desktop Management Interface (DMI) standard by acting as an SNMP agent. These components can be hardware or software in the system that have been defined in the Management Information Format (MIF). Although the DMI itself is protocol-independent, SystemView Agent can detect any DMI-enabled components in the system and translate the MIF information into SNMP management information bases (MIBs).

If no operating system references are included, the information is pertinent to all operating systems that the SystemView Agent program supports.
