[Check_mk (english)] Writing SNMP Based Check for HP DOM

[Robert Lewis]

Good afternoon,

I am writing a snmp based check for our HP(Now Aruba) Procurve switches to collect the DOM information. I am following the guide https://mathias-kettner.com/checkmk_devel_snmpbased.html and have started to get the information to return how I would like but I am running into a stumbling block.

In order to update the diagnostic information I need to set an OID to a value of 1 before querying. This has to be done each time I query to have the updated information.

Does anyone know of an example snmp check in check_mk that has to set a value like this? I was thinking I could easily set the value using pysnmp but I am looking for a way that is more integrated without me coming up with a one off solution.

Thank you,

Rob

Hi Robert,

there is no check inside check_mk that does something like this.
The only thing in this direction is the multi context queries for SNMP v3
devices. But also here there is no set of values only read. And also this
multiple read must be defined before.

Best regards
Andreas
