Description: A Management Station uses this table to GET or SET a *single* UMC database Provisioning record. Access to this table is read-write. By implementation, this table supports GET and SET operations ONLY.

GET NEXT (Progressive) is a special variant of GET which emulates a true SNMP GETNEXT by overloading the GET operation. We overload the GET to do this because the Management Station accessing us must actually perform the increment of the INDEX for us to truly make this table a generic interface. If the IPMI had to do this incrementing we would have to roll out a new IPMI release for each new DB record we wanted to support.

Like GET NEXT (Progressive), GET DEFAULT is another special variant of GET which allows the retrieval of DEFAULT DATABASE records (where supported by the UMC System) by again overloading the GET operation.

DELETE of a provisioning record is an extension of the SNMP SET operation and is described in more detail below.
