Which is why I tend to encourage people to walk for a while
(use the existing SNMP agent, and get a feel for how it all
works) before starting to run (write code to extend it)

You've omitted the definition of 'sgiStorageCopanSystem'
but it looks as if these are all scalar objects rather than
part of a table. Yes?
In which case the only thing that's wrong is that you're
missing the .0 at the end of each varbind returned from
the agent.
The OID of the 'partNumber' object is 1.3.6.1.4.1.59.1.5.3.1.1.2
but the OID of the (sole) *instance* of this (scalar) object is
1.3.6.1.4.1.59.1.5.3.1.1.2.0
If you tweak your script to look for (and return) this longer OID,
then everything should be fine.
(There are some subtler issues relating to the appropriate
error to return for invalid GET requests, but concentrate on
the core behaviour first)
