It might be worth having a quick look at the template I proposed back
in February last year. It's in a thread on the coders list entitled
"v5 and Net-SNMP enterprise tree", dated Tue, 12 Feb 2002 14:02:12 +0000
There was a little bit of discussion (mostly Wes saying what he didn't
like), and then it died a death (as usual). But it did include a
proposed 'nsCPU' group, containing a table of per-CPU monitoring objects.
That might be a possible starting point for designing something more
generally acceptable/useful.
Characteristics of interest included:
- framework for supporting "aggregate" as well as per-CPU metrics
- a (per-row) nsCPUTotalTicks object (so percentage usage could
be calculated for a given object without having to retrieve
*all* column objects, or assuming a particular tick rate)
- linked in with hrDeviceTable indexes
Let me know if you can't find this in the list archives, and I'll
repost a copy.
