If you select an invalid OID — that is, one which does not permit write access — the
message !!Can’t set action on this type!! will be displayed in the Variable field.
If you don’t know the exact spelling of the OID you wish to use for your alarm variable,
and you can’t find it by searching through the tree, use the MIB Tool Find feature to locate
the OID and determine its exact spelling (and tree location). For mo re information on the
MIB Tool utility and its Find capabilities, see the MIB Tools chapter in the Tools Gu ide .
The Find feature is not case-sensitive.
