snmpdf(1M) System Administration Commands snmpdf(1M)NAMEsnmpdf - get a listing of disk space usage on a remote machine by means
of SNMP
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sfw/bin/snmpdf [common options] [-Cu] agent
DESCRIPTION
The snmpdf command is a networked verison of the df(1M) command. It
checks the disk space on the remote machine by examining the HOST-
RESOURCES-MIB's hrStorageTable or the UCD-SNMP-MIB's dskTable. By
default, the hrStorageTable is preferred, as it typically contains more
information than the dskTable. However, the -Cu argument can be passed
to snmpdf to force the usage of dskTable.
The agent operand identifies a target SNMP agent, which is instrumented
to monitor specified objects. At its simplest, the agent specification
consists of a host name or an IPv4 address. In this situation, the com‐
mand attempts communication with the agent using UDP/IPv4 to port 161
of the target host.
See the snmpcmd(1M) manual page for a full list of the possible formats
for agent.
See the snmpd.conf(4) manual page for guidance on setting up dskTable
using the disk directive in the snmpd.conf file.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
common options
See snmpcmd(1M) for a list of possible values for common options,
as well as their descriptions.
-Cu
Forces the command to use dskTable in UCD-SNMP-MIB instead of the
default to determine the storage information. Generally, the
default use of hrStorageTable in HOST-RESOURCES-MIB is preferred
because it usually contains more information than dskTable.
