A few disk monitoring issues

Hi folks,

I've been trying to use net-snmp to monitor a few aspects of my server's
disks. The problems I'm having are:

1) A few hosts do not have the COUNTER64 for the UCD-DISKIO-MIB;

2) A few hosts do not have dskUsed from UCD-SNMP-MIB;

3) A few hosts have more than 2T on a single partition, causing
COUNTER32 to return as unsigned on dskUsed, others have more than 4T,
causing the object to simply not exist -- a specific case from (2).


I have been looking around and documentation about those problems are
simply non-existent. Even the mailing list archives contains nothing but
people asking it but never being replied back.


Can anyone point out documentation on that subject? The configure script
has only one reference to 64bit issues:

--without-opaque-special-types Don't use special opaque encodings.
SNMP normally cannot handle
floating numbers, nor large 64 bit
integers well. By default, the
net-snmp package compiles in
support for these extra datatypes
(in a legal way)

Guaranteed I did not use that option, so I'd expect to see the COUNTER64
for DiskIO.

No clues about the dskUsed issue, though.


I just need a starting point: some documentation, some part of the code
to check, whatever..

Any help will be appreciated..

Best regards,
Eduardo M. Bragatto.
