Hey, I use net-snmp extend scripts a lot in my organization to monitor all kinds of values on linux, freebsd and windows servers, and that's been working great with cacti so far. However, net-snmp seems to return only string datatypes instead of integers. It's not a problem for Cacti, since it automatically does string-to-integer conversion, but I'm starting out with nagios and other software, and it really has problems.
Example: This extend line: extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.54.101.0 test "/bin/echo 123" Gets me the following return value: UCD-SNMP-MIB::ucdavis.54.101.0.4.1.2.4.116.101.115.116.1 = STRING: "123" Is there a way I can force net-snmp to return an integer value? -- With kind regards, Angelo Höngens Systems Administrator ------------------------------------------ NetMatch tourism internet software solutions Ringbaan Oost 2b 5013 CA Tilburg T: +31 (0)13 5811088 F: +31 (0)13 5821239 mailto:a.hong...@netmatch.nl http://www.netmatch.nl ------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
