I have written a script that calls sensors parses the data and then loads that data into a MIB tree with either ucd or net SNMP. I have run into a small problem with the via686a chipset though. In all other chipset configs you can set an inX even if that chipset doesn't monitor(causing either a bad or null value to be returned) However with the via686a chipset I have not been able to figure out for the life of me how to do that. The reason I am trying to create placeholders for all values that can be monitored is so that the same MIB structure would apply across all systems. EXAMPLE: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.5822.20.101.20 is -5V on a system with the w83627hf-isa-0290 chipset and even if it wasn't there I could add a line for in6 creating that value. .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.5822.20.101.20 on a via686a motherboard will return a fan RPM speed. Because of this difference I cannot actually use this to get any usefull data from my server cluster. Having a mib return different values depending on the chipset is a bad bad thing. Is there a set command I can use in the config script to force the via686a configuration to insert a line for -12V or for that matter any place holder I want to create? Thanks in advance.
