Actually, storage.monitor would be easier as it finds the right index in the hrStorage table by name. See actual example in the config file.

Most snmp daemons export this by default or can be configured to export it. Then its just a simple matter of configuring snmpvar to look at the right data. If you've already got a snmp agent on the machine in question, try snmpwalk'ing host.hrStorage (.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2 if your snmpwalk can't transate that directly) -David Nolan Network Software Developer Computing Services Carnegie Mellon University _______________________________________________ mon mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/mon _______________________________________________ mon mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/mon
