I am attempting to graph the value from a custom SNMP script. The basic premise of the script is to grab the PID of a process and pipe it out to SNMP. The issue that I am having is that Zenoss is not liking the OID of the script.

The OID that snmpd is using is 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8.1.101 and I can snmpwalk this OID and get the result. I can test the string from the template section and get the result as well.

When I leave it running and check the server after a time I get the error

Error reading value for "script" on "localhost" (oid . 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8.1.101 is bad)

Is there a specific data type that Zenoss wants the SNMP scripts to return in order for the OID type to be valid?

The data type doesn't matter. The reason you're getting that "Error reading value" event is that you're pulling an incomplete OID. If you look at the output of you snmpwalk more closely you'll likely see that the OID needs a .1 added to the end of it: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8.1.101.1
