What are the contents of 'SNMP Success Events' useful for? (NETIQKB43529)

The SNMP Generic Scripts all have an option to create a Success Event if the SNMP Request was successful. When experimenting with the SNMP Generic Toolkit, these events can be very useful, because they contain the following information:

• A list of the SNMP ODE/OID?s that were retrieved.
• The device that they were retrieved from.
• The values of each SNMP ODE/OID after mathematical conversions have been performed.
• The raw value of each SNMP ODE/OID before any mathematical conversions.

SNMP Success Events are useful when configuring scripts for a specific monitoring task. The data in the SNMP Success Event will show that the expected SNMP Values are being retrieved, and that any mathematical conversions are being performed properly.
