asamAlarmSnapshotTableStatus

Before reading the snapshot table, one must try to set this object
to inUse first. When it is already in this state, the set will fail;
when in the notInUse state, the set will succeed. The inUse state is
only kept for a limited time, which is defined by the
asamAlarmSnapshotTimeout object. When the timeout expires, this
object is automatically reset to the notInUse state and the snapshot
table is emptied. 
          
Scenario for taking a snapshot :
================================   
   * Try to set the asamAlarmSnapshotTableStatus to inUse.  Proceed
     only if successfull;
          
   * optionally set the owner string to enable other managers to
     identify the current snapshot table user;
          
   * set the snapshot table severity level;
          
   * read the number of entries in the snapshot table;
          
   * optionally read the severity status bitmap to identify the
     active severity levels in the snapshot table;
          
   * read out the snapshot table using GET or GETNEXT SNMP commands;
          
   * free the snapshot table for other managers by setting the
     status to notInUse.
