I feel a little dumb to be asking this but how does one actually get the NetApp MIB into mrtg to be able to query and plot information about one's filers?
Currently I'm under the impression that I need to convert the fine NetApp MIB in ASN.1 to the serialised integer format, to build into the mrtg script.
Now after much searching and thinking I've found a number of BER compilers that'll do the job, outputting C/C++ tables, but nothing that just outputs simple ascii strings.
Am I on the right track? Is there a cunning and clever way to do the job without these steps? Has anyone done this before AND are willing to help me out/contrib the work back to the mrtg site?
Any and all help sincerely appreciated!
Hi,
I've put an MRTG program for monitoring NetCache Appliances at ftp://ftp.netapp.com/netcache/contrib/netcache-mrtg-dist.tar.gz. It happens to plot four standard filer variables, but monitors NetCache specific variables as well.

This is grand! Thank you!
We have an F220 running 4.1cD3. We are running MRTG-2.5.2.
The numbers for disk usage (1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.5.4.1.4.1 and 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.5.4.1.3.1) are working great for us.
The numbers for cpu busy percent (1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.2.1.3.0) aren't working so good. It keeps returning "48". Does anyone know why this would be? A 5 minute sysstat (sysstat 300) is showing more variation.
The numbers for net usage (1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.2 and 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.2) keep returing zeros. Should I be using a different set of numbers for an F220?
Thanks again, Chris
