There was a great flowing of useful information almost immediately after I
sent my question to the list. Everyone suggested to install Digital's
Perfomance Manager and use that or look at the mib info that it creates
and use another tool like MRTG (which is what we are planning on doing).
Responses follow.
Thanks much all!

Install DEC's Performance Manager (pmgr), which generally comes
with a local license (local means you can run it on the machine
you want to watch; a more extensive license lets pmgr talk to many machines
simultaneously), and take a look at the mib files in /usr/opt/pm/data
This works using snmp, you can presumably query this on your own.
I think load average may be covered under the standard Host mib, but I'm
not really sure.

Hi' there !
If you have installed Performance Manager, there is a file called
"/usr/opt/pm/data/pm-mib". It contains the mib for the performance
manager.
As you may know there are some nieth scripts in the directory
"/usr/var/opt/pm/...".

Hello
I had the same problem and my solution is a Performance Manager on
Associated Products 2 (or 1, now I don't know). The PM has a little
defect, because it cannot archive data (I need the history). After you
installed it read the man pmgrd (information about MIB). I don't use the
PM, but I use the MIB of PM and the archiving I make by using MRTG(
HTTP://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html )

My original question:
Subject: SNMP info for Load Average
I'm looking for the mib and oid for load average to monitor our Alphas.
Is there any resource for this info?
TIA
