I don't think snmp tables have any defined order. I don't even know if
the index for a particular resource is guaranteed to be stable across
filesystem dismount/remounts. Something like this should work:
snmptable -Cf : blue hrStorageTable | grep :/var: | awk -F : '{print $4 * $5}'
I use something similar in a script to graph disk usage in mrtg. It
sould be really nice if snmptable had a built-in flag to print a
particular cell from a table, though.
