SNMP on AIX 5.3


I need to monitor a system with AIX 5.3, but can't find a good source for the OIDs. Does anybody know the OIDs for CPU, Memory and Harddisk values?


Solution

  • The best way to find which OIDs have the numbers you want is to use a tool like snmpwalk.

    However, I think the defaults should be something like this:

    CPU: 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.Index

    Storage Types: 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.2.Index

    Storage Size: 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.Index

    Storage Usage: 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.Index

    It is also helpful to read the RFC's for SNMP, RFC1157, RFC2571, RFC2790
