Have a look here: http://www.et.put.poznan.pl/snmp/mib2/mib2.html There are also RFC's covering the topic. > Can some on help me with the concept of OIDs and how do i come up with my > own OID What do you mean by "own OID"? I humbly and well-meaningly suggest reading some documentation on SNMP, MIBs (especially MIB2) and OIDs. > i followed the above tutorial and tried to query my clinet server to get the > path where the disk is mounted but was not successful here .. > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] libexec]# ./check_snmp -H 121.XXX.XX.11 -C public -o > 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.9.1.2.1 > SNMP problem - No data received from host could it be, that your host 121.XXX.XX.11 doesn't allow nagios to query it on protocol UDP port 161. (Maybe a firewall is enabled.) Is the snmp-server running? Is the community-string set right. If you stick with the example and your firewall doesn't get in your way, queries should work.
