There were two issues encountered. Originally the MIB file had been transferred in binary mode, so the file contained ^M characters. After the MIB file was transfered in ascii mode the error message was still received. It appeared that HP Openview was not reading the last line of the file.
RESOLUTION:
Transfer the MIB file to the host in ascii mode since the MIB file is a text file.
Add a carriage return after the last line of the MIB file so that the last line is read by HP Openview.
