What happens if you use 'snmpwalk' on this object?
Can you see the values you expect?

That shouldn't be necessary.
The "rouser" directive allows access to the full OID tree automatically.

That doesn't look like a valid Net-SNMP config directive.
Please see the documentation

OK - user 'notifier' (once it's been created properly) should be able
to see everything

That looks OK too.
Are you seeing coldStart and nsShutdown traps when the agent starts and stops?

cpuRawSystem is a counter object so you need to be looking at the *differences*
between successive values. Try adding the '-D' option to this line
It's not a percentage either - it's the number of ticks spent in that mode.
The threshold value would depend on the length of time between probes
(and querying every second may put a noticeable load on the system!)
-o specifies the OIDs to include in the resulting trap.
The object being monitored will be present anyway, so you don't need to mention
it explicitly. And "cpu usage" is not a valid OID, so that option won't work.

The MIB object ssCpuSystem has been deprecated, because the raw counter
version provides the same information in a more flexible form. But it's still
present, and you can use that instead if you prefer. (Note that this is *not*
a counter, so you wouldn't use '-D')
There was an issue a while back with this reporting something different
depending on what O/S you were using (which was the other reason for it
being deprecated). But as long as you're using a reasonably recent
version of the agent, it should be consistent and useable.
