A quick look thorugh imap/*snmp shows a lot of useless accounting, true. Some of that data would be useful in very particular situations, but that seems hardly useful enough to warrant the trouble. > If you're actually interested in accumulating some of this data, it > probably makes more sense to have each process accumulate it > individually and then dump it to a central file every so often. Yes, or log it to syslog. I am not interested on that data, though; cyrmaster already does all the really useful accounting anyway. I was just doing a once-over the snmp stuff in Cyrus to write some sample snmp data gatherers, and noticed those *snmp files. > Also, are the OIDs used by the imap/*snmp files still valid? > > Yes, though if we're going to work on it we should probably move it > under the cmuCyrus arc. True. As far as I am concerned, it can be removed, though. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
