Hi Bill, To avoid confusion: does your comment apply to commit a88d81f1144e ("NET-SNMP-SYSTEM-MIB, Linux: Update calculation of free space") only or also to commit 4e3ace87b566 ("NET-SNMP-SYSTEM-MIB: Account reclaimable space")? Thanks, Bart.

In Arista EOS we handled this by adding another row to the table, to avoid breaking existing data collection when someone upgrades.   Bill On Mon, Jul 8, 2019 at 12:27 AM net-snmp Git repository <nore...@code.net-snmp.p.re.sourceforge.net> wrote: Branch: V5-8-patches NET-SNMP-SYSTEM-MIB, Linux: Update calculation of free space Update calculation of free space for Physical and Virtual memory on linux.
