OAM EMC table

The OAM EMC (extended management component) table contains keywords, values, and qualifiers for each EMC.

The objects in the OAM EMC table (oamEMCs) are:

Object	Description
emcTable	Top of the table.
emcEntry	Beginning a row of the EMC table.
emcIndex	EMC index.
emcKwIndex	Unique index (within this table) identifying the keyword.
emckeywordName	Keyword name, formatted as described in OAM Database MIB tables and keywords.
emckwValue	Value of the keyword.
emckwType	Type of the keyword: integer or string.
emckwMode	1 indicates keyword value is read-only. 2 indicates keyword value is read/write.
emckwAllowedRange	Range of allowable values for the keyword, formatted as described in OAM Database MIB tables and keywords.
emckwDescription	Short description of the keyword.

To populate this table, the OAM Database SNMP agent opens the NMS OAM Supervisor managed object and retrieves the values in the ExtendedManagementComponents[x] keyword. This value is an array listing the EMCs installed and running under the Supervisor. The agent opens the managed object for each listed EMC and creates a row in the oamEMC table for each keyword in the managed object. Each keyword is given two indices:

The index of the EMC to which the keyword belongs (emcIndex). This value is equivalent to the index of the ExtendedManagementComponents[x] keyword listing the managed object.
A unique numerical index (emcKwIndex), 1 or higher.
