This happens because Microsoft is incapable of understanding or following industry standards.
Same thing happens with instances of network interfaces, storage devices, etc. If you need to monitor performance items on Windows servers reliably and consistantly, you cannot rely on any mib that Microsoft has written, or any standard mib that Microsoft has implemented. If your hardware vendor has supplied agents with their own mibs, use those. Otherwise use external scripts to access perfmon or wmi stats. If neither of these are an option, you're out of luck.

For example, on first host: (Iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2) #snmpwalk -OT 1stwindows2000host .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3 [snip] host.hrDevice.hrProcessorTable.hrProcessorEntry.hrProcessorLoad.1 = 0 host.hrDevice.hrProcessorTable.hrProcessorEntry.hrProcessorLoad.2 = 0 On second host: #snmpwalk -OT 2ndwindows2000host .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1 [snip] host.hrDevice.hrProcessorTable.hrProcessorEntry.hrProcessorLoad.2 = 0 host.hrDevice.hrProcessorTable.hrProcessorEntry.hrProcessorLoad.3 = 0 Why are the CPU numbered 0,1 on the 1st host and 2,3 on the 2nd host when both have only 2 processors and are capable of having at most 2 processors? I am trying to get the load from dual processor Windows boxes and the above behavior is causing problems because on some boxes I have to query 0,1 and and some I have to query 2,3. I wish the index started uniformely at 0...
