exactly the way i'm thinking about it. this gives you the option to

know, snmp gives disk usage info, and, afaik, also running processes.
for now, that's enough for me.

Just remember that at least on linux, the cpu usage information
presented by SNMPD is wildly inaccurate, so don't rely on it for
that particular stat. I wrote my own little scripts to feed into
snmpd to get cpu usage and associated templates etc for cacti.

Can you be more specific about how snmp is wrong and what you do to get a more accurate value? Is it just that the snmp value needs to be scaled by the number of processors?
