The good news is that your Proliant probably shipped with a collection
of software called Proliant Essentials -- a box full of CDROMs.  The
Insight Management Agents contained therein will expose quite a lot of
this information via SNMP.  They're written specifically for your
hardware and understand it thoroughly.

The bad news is that HP tends to be years behind the curve with
respect to Net-SNMP.  The Agents will probably work with modern
versions, though -- they are automagically recompiled at startup every
time you change almost anything about your system, since they plug in
via dlmod.  I haven't tried to make this work in some years, so I
don't have specific advice for current releases.

(Does anybody know where to send a copy of the AgentX spec. to HP that
will get serious attention from someone who can make things happen?)

Typically when a software vendor says that a product is "intuitive" he
means the exact opposite.
