SNMP to MySQL: Write SNMP values to the MySQL database

The configuration for data exporting to the MySQL database is similar to one described in the "Write data to the MSSQL database." Only the main differences are described in this manual.

1. Download and install the 32-bit version of MySQL ODBC Connector (the ODBC driver) for MySQL from mysql.org.

2. The structure of a table in the database will look like this:

2.1 In the case of "Write a lot of SNMP items."


CREATE TABLE `snmp_data` (
 `REC_ID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 `TIMESTAMP` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
 `ITEM_NAME` varchar(25) NOT NULL,
 `ITEM_VALUE` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`REC_ID`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

2.2 In the case of "Write several SNMP items."


CREATE TABLE `snmp_data_2` (
  `REC_ID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `TIMESTAMP` datetime NOT NULL,
  `ITEM1` varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL,
  `ITEM2` varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`REC_ID`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

If you specify any other data type than String for ITEM1 or ITEM2 in the SNMP settings, you should create the columns of the corresponding types while creating a table.

3. Create an ODBC data source for your MySQL database.

4. During "Binding," you should take into account that the names of the table and its columns are case-sensitive in MySQL.
