We would like to monitor our servers to get an idea
of the usage, to answer the inevitable questions:
Who is using then? Are they reaching capacity etc?

Is SNMP the way to do resource monitoring? Just UNIX for now!
Has anyone run across an SNMP MIB that defines
system resources - things like CPU usage, Disk utilization etc. 
How about user resource utilization?
Of course the next question is: What about an agent that
works with the "resource" MIB?

Any info/thoughts wold be welcome!
in haste,
  Bob
