Is there any reason not to use snmp traps ?

Hello Toasters.

I'm trying to write a simple dainty application to check for drive failures in our Filers. I'm going to implement this app in a PERL script which will use UCD SNMP to pull variables from the Filers. The problem is that when I walk the SNMP tree on a Filer I only get network statistics. I'm getting info in the following manner:

# export MIBFILE="/usr/local/share/snmp/mibs/netapp_1_5.mib" # snmpwalk -v 1 bigfiler public

I get about 2027 lines of output with IP, TCP, UDB, SNMP stats, plus address translation tables. But what I really want to see is the the RAID tables. Any idea what I need to do? I've found no help elsewhere on the net, including NetApp's NOW site. I DID find one page on NOW that listed several SNMP Groups found in the MIB, but I don't know how to access them.

Any help is appreciated.
