An interesting update to this. With the ARM target's agent logging some 
debug, I see that it is happily digesting 
snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.\'testTarget\` (for example) as OID 
.1.3.6.1.6.3.12.1.2.1.9.116.101.115.116.84.97.114.103.101.116 from the 
snmpset running on the Fedora host. 

On the ARM target, I replaced the MIB text formatted specifier with the raw 
OID and it works just fine. 
So this means some combo of:
a) snmpset is unable to read (or perhaps fully buffer) the MIBs on the 
target
b) the ARM build of snmpset is maybe resulting in some kind of munged up 
endianness mishandling of input text
c) the ARM target is so constrained in terms of storage and/or memory that 
it's simply crapping out and this is the best-effort error message it can 
give me.

I've messed with a few things regard a) to no avail. 
if it's b) and/or c), I'm hosed. 

At least I know I ** can ** make this work in the short term. 

Still, any thoughts / advise appreciated.
cheers,

Configuration:

This is a highly constrained environment / small footprint / low resource 
target.

snmpd is run from init.d, launched by start-stop-daemon. The default mode is 
SNMPv3. V1, V2c are not used.

I cannot accomplish the first step to setting trap configs using snmpset. 

However, if I mimic the trap-destination steps on an external linux host 
(Intel / Fedora23) to the target, it works fine.
Here's the host side output:

SNMP-TARGET-MIB::snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.'testTarget' = INTEGER: destroy(6)

>From Fedora host, systematically configuring the table works to the degree 
that I can use a mib browser in V3 to look at my target's snmpTargetAddr 
table entries, and they return the applied content.

That entire initial volley consists of:
snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA 
-A password -x AES -X password 10.11.16.93 
snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.\'testTarget\' i 6
snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA 
-A password -x AES -X password 10.11.16.93 
snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.\'testTarget\' i 5
snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA 
-A password -x AES -X password 10.11.16.93 
snmpTargetAddrTDomain.\'testTarget\' o 1.3.6.1.6.1.1
snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA 
-A password -x AES -X password 10.11.16.93 
snmpTargetAddrTAddress.\'testTarget\' x 0A0A0A5F00A2
snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA 
-A password -x AES -X password 10.11.16.93 
snmpTargetAddrTagList.\'testTarget\' s testTag
snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA 
-A password -x AES -X password 10.11.16.93 
snmpTargetAddrParams.\'testTarget\' s testParams
snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA 
-A password -x AES -X password 10.11.16.93 
snmpTargetAddrStorageType.\'testTarget\' i 3
snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA 
-A password -x AES -X password 10.11.16.93 
snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.\'testTarget\' i 1

But the same exercise, when run from the target's shell doesn't work. 
Here's the target side output (to any of its eth0 IP, lo, localhost, 
127.0.0.1):
 
/usr/sbin/snmp-support/scripts # snmpset -d -Lo -M ../mibs -m ALL -v3 -l 
authpriv -u SNMPv3ShaAesUser -a SHA -A password -x AES -X passphrase 
10.11.16.93 snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.\'testTarget\' i 6

snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.'testTarget': Unknown Object Identifier 
(snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.'testTarget')

That's all I get, no matter what I try (so far).

../mibs/ on both the target and the Fedora host are the same content: 
-rwxrwx---. 1 root    root 68104 Apr 27 11:41 DISMAN-EVENT-MIB.txt
-rwxrwx---. 1 root    root 24694 Apr 27 11:41 NOTIFICATION-LOG-MIB.txt

-rwxr-x---. 1 root    root 38034 Apr 27 11:42 SNMPv2-TC.txt

I am running as root in both places as well (don't have a choice on the 
target). 
Any ideas? I'm all out of them. 
thanks.
