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 [...]

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 [...]
