First i've heard of it. but probably not. I think the "standards review process" is too slow. by the time i convince them that these new points are of value, we'll have added many more. They haven't even added the UCD mib set, many of which are of extreme value to the standard host mib definition. And these are close to a decade old.
Now that many of the applications run on linux, and z/vm and associated hardware costs have dropped, the issue is performance. I don't think anybody wants to wait for IETF, and we're way to busy to play their politics... >From: David Boyes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >> One more point about netsnmp, beyond the HOST, MIB-II, and UCD >> mibs provided by netsnmp, we've extended it to support a set >> of (growing) velocity software mibs that we have found necessary >> to meet the challenge of mainframe style capacity planning and >> performance analysis requirements.... > >It sounds like you've identified a number of areas where the SMI doesn't >really do the job.
