As I said - some management applications may not like an object
that cannot be read. But that's a limitation of the management tool,
not the SNMP protocol.
The simplest approach is to return a standard value for this object,
and document this behaviour within the MIB file. For example,
objects of type UCDErrorFix will always return 0. But the real
purpose of such objects is to SET a value of 1 to active that entry.
