The SNMP agent and the SNMP protocol do not perform data treatment
on the collected value. This task should be handled by the SNMP manager.
We have taken a simple example to explain the current limitation in SNMP management.
We want to know a simple management indicator with is the percentage of utilization
of a hard disk, the logical C unit of our Microsoft server. But by default the
SNMP agent of Windows doesn’t provide this information. The only values
that with can get are available through the HOTS RESSOURCE MIB defined by the
RFC2790 mib file.
The value provides obtained from this MIB is the number of cluster used by a
disk. We should first know :
to be able to calculate the utilization in percent.
All this tasks can only be done by a set of sequential tasks and processing
instructions (a program or a script).
In the next chapters, we will go step by step through this tasks.
