It is recommended to monitor AS400 CPU load with OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.4.5.1.0 that returns a value based on 10,000. It needs then to be divided by 100 to get a percentage.
The 2nd disadvantage is that the result is slightly wrong, the integer part only being returned.
OID HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrProcessorLoad.2 from an IBM i5 520 gives the correct value [...]

MRTG needs at least 2 values to generate graphs. Thus, Most configurations contain the same OID twice in the target line.
This leads to 2 problems:
- The same data is collected twice which requires more bandwidth, especially when a large number of hosts is monitored

- The value may vary during this very short lap, producing 2 [...]
