Hello,

We use a product called WhatsUp Gold along with Denika to monitor and display
via SNMP vitals for our Windows and Novell servers. I'd like to start
monitoring our Solaris 8 & 9 servers (x86 & SPARC) as well. I've located the
MIBs in /var/snmp/mib and found two of them:

snmpdx.mib
sun.mib

Should I use one of these to import in to our SNMP monitoring software
(WhatsUp Gold), or go with those from the Sun Management Center or others?
Also, any info on getting the correct vitals (CPU usage, slice usage, etc.)
via SNMP on the Suns would be helpful. Thanks in advance, and I'll post the
summary which may help others as well wanting to do something similar.
