Description: This column indicates how the MLM should treat the current row in the mlmScriptCompileTable. If the value is 'temporary', no record of the row is kept when the MLM is restarted (e.g. the machine is rebooted). If the value is 'startup', the row is recorded in non-volatile memory, is restored when the MLM is restarted, and the row is immediately activated (i.e. the script is run) when the MLM is restarted. If the value is 'permanent', the row is stored in non-volatile memory and is restored when the MLM is restarted.

What is mlmPermanence?

Determines how this compile-table row survives an MLM restart: temporary (default) discards it on reboot, startup persists it in non-volatile memory and auto-runs it again on restart, and permanent persists it without automatically re-running it.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.99.42.1.5.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> MLM-MIB::mlmPermanence

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.99.42.1.5.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> MLM-MIB::mlmPermanence.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.99.42.1.5.1.8.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> mlmPermanence.1
