I have compiled and installed snmppd on my nagios systems. I'd heard that using the snmp proxy daemon would help reduce snmp check times and loads on the servers being monitored. We have been noticing very high CPU utilization on our NetApp filers every time nagios does an snmp check on them. When we disable nagios checks on the filers, load decreases significantly.
However, we've seen no improvement by using snmppd thus far, which makes me question if perhaps I'm not using it the right way. Other than installing it via rpm and starting the service, all I've done is symlink check_snmp to the new check_snmpp in my plugins directory. Does anyone have more experience with this?
