I keep wondering how long the equivalent snmp query takes ... or in fact gathering all the data asynchronously via snmp ...
I've always thought that SNMP would be great for UNIX. But everytime I have ever tried to really make it work, it just doesn't. snmp agent issues, OID issues, polling issues, UDP network issues.
My previous experiences have been so heinous I can easily recognize my own bias against SNMP for unix at this point.
But what is wierd is it works so well for comm/network equipment.
