How to monitor CPU load and disk space on HP-UX using SNMP

Hi,
I am trying to monitor CPU load and disk space on a HP-UX 11.23 using SNMP. I couldn't find any suitable MIBs when querying the server using HP Openview so I installed Net-SNMP (from HP Internet Express software) and restarted the snmpd, but I still cannot find any suitable MIBs.

# snmpwalk -v 2c -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.9.1.7.1
UCD-SNMP-MIB::dskAvail.1 = No Such Object available on this agent at this OID
# uname -a
HP-UX dns1 B.11.23 U ia64 0295163534 unlimited-user license
# swlist | grep SNMP
ixNet-SNMP A.11.00-5.4.1.2.001 Simple Network Monitoring protocol

(I can see a lot of MIBs, but not the ones I am interested in, eg CPU load, disk space). Please advice. Thanks.
(enclosed is my snmpd.conf from /etc/)

Thanks for your reply. I have now attached the file :)
My problem is that I cannot locate and read the right MIBs, and I cant find the answer in the above links. I am not trying to send any traps (at least not yet), I am just querying the server so I can graph the cpu load and disk space over time.

HP perfview can also be used for monitoring HP servers.

Thanks

As I understand it it is now part of the HP Openview (which I use), but the problem is still that I can't find the relevant MIBs.

Re: How to monitor CPU load and disk space on HP-UX using SNMP

HP's host resrouce OIDs are under the private tree.

Depends on the version of HPUX.

CPU, Mem, Disk, etc...

The MIB file can be found to load into your mib browser you just need to know where to look.
