SNMP on AIX 5.3

Question

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?

Answer 1

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
