Dave,

yeah this is the ugliest of hacks on NetApps part.... they use two
32-bit integers that you have to munge together to get the appropriate
value. Here is some information from the NOW site:

#  ONTAP 6.0 or higher supports new pseudo-64 bit counters for network
#  statistics (NETWORK-APPLIANCE-MIB version 1.5 or later).
#
#  The old, deprecated 32-bit counters are in Kbytes.  The new, 64-bit
#  counters are in bytes.  Both sets of counters need post-processing,

So you basically need to do the following:

Get the miscHighNfsOps value and multiply it by 2^^32, then add the
miscLowNfsOps value to the result. This will be the "true" 64-bit number
reported for the NFS Ops value.


HTH,
