If you haven't specified values for 'c' and 'd' then the row would be
"notReady".
If you have specified values for 'c' and 'd', then the row would either
be 'notInService' or 'active' - your choice.

That will fail.
You are trying to create a row that is already created

You can only use "createAndWait" or "createAndGo" with rows that
do *NOT* already exist.

If you sent a SET request

    snmpset .... localhost  d.1 i 10

then that should work.
But the row would still be incomplete. and remain 'notReady'.

If you sent a SET request

    snmpset .... localhost  d.1 i 10   c.1 i 999

then the row would now be complete, and marked 'notInService'.



> Then agent will make the rowstatus as "active"?

When you tell it to

    snmpset .... localhost  rowstatus.1 i  active(1)


Please read the description of RowStatus in SNMPv2-TC
This covers the behaviour of row creation in great detail.
