Being quite interested in this as well, went to search the archives and
for something that's been "asked and answered before", am having a fun
time trying to find it :)
One thing I'm interested in doing is monitoring something that I'd figure
would be simple: loadavg. But, snmpwalk on my machine (ucd-snmp 4.0.1
isntalled) reveals very little information other then those that appear to
deal with the network, where there is oddles of info ...
I'm lookign through the ucd-snmp web site right now, adn the EXAMPLES.conf
file that comes with the distribution, but would think stuff like:
% swap usage
% cpu usage
loadavg
would be of interest to others, no? I'd like to avoid re-creating a wheel
that someone else has already done, if at al possible...?
