1.  Introduction

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes managed objects used for managing relational database (RDBMS) implementations.

2.  The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework

The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework consists of four major components. They are:

o RFC 1442 [1] which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for describing and naming objects for the purpose of management.

o STD 17, RFC 1213 [2] defines MIB-II, the core set of managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols.

o RFC 1445 [3] which defines the administrative and other architectural aspects of the framework.

o RFC 1448 [4] which defines the protocol used for network access to managed objects.

o RFC 1443 [5] which describes textual conventions for the framework.

The framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of experimentation and evaluation. In particular, the RDBMS-MIB can be seen as an extension of

o RFC 1565 [6] which defines the MIB for monitoring network service applications.
2.1.  Object Definitions

Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) defined in the SMI. In particular, each object type is named by an OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name. The object type together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify a specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, we often use a textual string, termed the descriptor, to refer to the object type.
3.  Overview

The RDBMS-MIB contains objects that may be used to manage relational database implementations. Specifically, it contains information on installed databases, servers, and on the relation of databases and servers. The terms used in this database are described below.
Brower, Purvy, Daniel, Sinykin & Smith                          [Page 2]


RFC 1697                       RDBMS-MIB                     August 1994
3.1.  Terminology

Vendors and Products
are providers of database systems on a host. These vendors may have more than one database product that is manageable through this MIB. On a host, there may be systems from multiple vendors, multiple systems from a single vendor, or any other combination. There may be a private MIB for each vendor, and this may be located using the PrivateMibOID objects in some of the tables.

Databases
are collections of interrelated data organized according to a schema to serve one or more applications. A database is, for purposes of this MIB, a collection of tables whose organization is based on the relational model. There may be one or more databases available in each system on the host from each product. In the MIB, data about databases is captured in the rdbmsDbTable and the rdbmsDbInfoTable, each with one row per database.

Relational Database Management System (RDBMS)
A collection of integrated services which support database management and together support and control the creation, use and maintenance of relational databases. Servers as defined in this MIB provide the functions of the RDBMS.

Servers
are entities that provide access to databases. For this MIB, servers are defined to be entities that may exist independently of other servers. A server may or may not be a single process, based on its independence from other processes. In this MIB, information about servers is captured in the rdbmsSvrTable, the rdbmsSvrInfoTable, each with one row per server extending the applTable from the APPLICATION-MIB of RFC 1565. The rdbmsSvrTable and rdbmsSvrInfoTable are both indexed by the applIndex of that MIB.

Associations
Inbound associations are local or remote conversations, usually instances of the SQL CONNECT statement, as made visible in servers. The MIB does not currently reveal individual associations; there are association counters in the dbmsSvrInfoTable and the applTable.

There are also relationships between servers and databases. All obvious relationships are possible and supported: o 1 database : 1 server
Brower, Purvy, Daniel, Sinykin & Smith                          [Page 3]


RFC 1697                       RDBMS-MIB                     August 1994

o 1 database : many servers

o many databases : 1 server

o many databases : many servers
3.2.  Structure and Features

The information in this MIB module is organized into nine tables, twelve potentially writable objects, and two traps, as follows.
3.2.1.  Tables

o databases installed on a host/system (rdbmsDbTable)

o actively opened databases (rdbmsDbInfoTable)

o database configuration parameters (rdbmsDbParamTable)

o database limited resources (rdbmsDbLimitedResourceTable)

o database servers installed on a system (rdbmsSrvTable)

o active database servers (rdbmsSrvInfoTable)

o configuration parameters for a server (rdbmsSrvParamTable)

o server limited resources (rdbmsSrvLimitedResourceTable)

o relation of servers and databases on a host (rdbmsRelTable)

These entities have broad applicability among database systems, and are enough for many monitoring tasks. They are far from adequate for detailed management or performance monitoring of specific database products. This gap is expected to be filled with vendor and product specific MIBs addressing the entities that have not been codified here.

RFC 1697                       RDBMS-MIB                     August 1994
3.2.2.  Writable objects

The MIB requires no writable objects for conformance. There is no expectation that RDBMS systems may be actively managed through this MIB. However, the RDBMS-MIB supports the capability to modify the following objects if the implementor so chooses.

o rdbmsDbContact

o rdbmsDbInfoSizeAllocated

o rdbmsDbParamCurrValue

o rdbmsDbParamComment rdbmsDbLimitedResourceLimit

o rdbmsDbLimitedResourceDescription

o rdbmsSrvContact

o rdbmsSrvInfoMaxInboundAssociations

o rdbmsSrvParamCurrValue

o rdbmsSrvParamComment

o rdbmsSrvLimitedResourceLimit

o rdbmsSrvLimitedResourceDescription
3.2.3.  Traps

The RDBMS-MIB contains two traps:

o rdbmsStateChange

o rdbmsOutOfSpace

A limited resource has maximum use determined by a parameter that might or might not be changeable at run time, or visible in the rdbmsDbParamTable. Examples would be the number of available locks, or disk space on a partition. Arrays of resources are supported through an integer sub index, which should have the value of one for single-instance names.

Limited resources that are shared across databases, are best put in the rdbmsSvrLimitedResourceTable instead of this one. If the database is not actively opened, then attempts to access corresponding instances in this table may result in either noSuchName (SNMPv1) or noSuchInstance (SNMPv2). 'Actively opened' means at least one of the rdbmsRelState entries for this database in the rdbmsRelTable is active(2)."

Entries in this table correspond to applications in the APPLICATION-MIB applTable. Some objects in that table are application-specific. When they are associated with an RDBMS server in this table, the objects have the following meanings.

applName - The name of this server, i.e., the process or group of processes providing access to this database. The exact format will be product and host specific.

applVersion - The version number of this server, in product specific format.

applOperStatus - up(1) means operational and available for general use. down(2) means the server is not available for use, but is known to the agent. The other states have broad meaning, and may need to be supplemented by the vendor private MIB. Halted(3) implies an administrative state of unavailability. Congested(4) implies a resource or or administrative limit is prohibiting new inbound associations. The 'available soon' description of restarting(5) may include an indeterminate amount of recovery.

applLastChange is the time the agent noticed the most recent change to applOperStatus.

applInboundAssociation is the number of currently active local and remote conversations (usually SQL connects).

applOutboundAssociations is not provided by this MIB.

applAccumulatedInboundAssociations is the total number of local and remote conversations started since the server came up.

applAccumulatedOutbound associations is not provided by this MIB.

applLastInboundActivity is the time the most recent local or remote conversation was attempted or disconnected.

"An entry for a single limited resource kept by the server.
A limited resource has maximum use determined by a parameter that might or might not changeable at run time, or visible in the rbmsSrvParamTable. Examples would be the number of available locks, or number of concurrent executions allowed in a server. Arrays of resources are supported through an integer subindex, which should have the value of one for single-instance names.
