[mrtg] graphing an OID (SOLVED)

[Dylan Bouterse]

Sometimes you assume the fix is complicated when in fact it could be
something as easy as what the MaxBytes is set to. Thank you Duane! My
MaxBytes was set to 60 (which would have been fine for Celcius) so I
bumped it up to 125 and I am getting values in my graphs now!

For the record, I had to remove the . in the beginning of the OID to
make mine work. Thanks again everybody for your help!

One last guess.  What do you have your MaxBytes set to?  Have you ever
dumped the rrd file using RRDTOOL and looked at the entries?  If it says
"nan" then it can't process the reponse for some reason.

I do have the guage option set and changing to the integer OID did not
help. I am still getting no values returned on my graph and
unfortunately, no errors either.

I would try the OID that gives you an integer and you probably want to
use the "gauge" option.

It is still not returning a value.

I am not able to turn an snmpget command that works into a working
graph. I'm sure there is a relatively simple answer/fix to what I am
doing wrong. SNMPGET returns:

[root at ns1 cfg]# snmpget -v 1 -c ##### 1.1.12.250
.1.3.6.1.4.1.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0 = STRING: "80.5"

In my MRTG config I have:

Target[OutsideTemp]:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0&.1.3.6.1.4.1.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0:#####@
1.1.12.250

I can also change the 1.3.0 to 1.4.0 to get an INTERGER but I'm not sure
that matters with my issue. Any help?
