[mrtg] Re: Fwd: Newbie - Problems with CPU, memory, swap on C ompaq Deskpro

..... Also, bear in mind that when you issue a snmpget it returns the number
for that specific time. 
In order to get the same values, both tools (snmpget & MRTG) would have to
hit the target at the same time. 

Since it's almost impossible ....

Jan,

Thank you for helping me!

I didn't know I had a MIB-browser, but on the internet I found 
the following command, which I tried on my system: (maybe you 
know a better
one...??)

# snmpget -v1 -c public localhost ssCpuRawUser.0 
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawUser.0 = Counter32: 219726

# snmpget -v1 -c public localhost ssCpuRawSystem.0 
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawSystem.0 = Counter32: 42828

# head -n5 cpu.log
1111585802 220831 42760
1111585802 1 1 1 1
1111585645 1 1 1 1
1111585500 1 1 1 1
1111585200 1 1 1 1

As you can see, the values are not exactly the same, but they 
are pretty close to each other...

Isn't it strange that the other values of the file are all set 
to "1" ?? Because this is the value I see in the graph all the time...

regards/groeten,
Corstian
