Hi Folks,
Sorry for cross-posting. I gather from the lack of responses in Hep:General that this isn't possible with 0.8.6h:
I am looking to map a return value from an SNMP query to a corresponding entry in a MIB (e.g. enumeration) Thus far I haven't managed to locate a way to do this unless I use a script to do the enumeration for me. Could this be included as a feature in a future release so SNMP XML queries could have either unformatted or enumerated return values?

Please be more specific in your request. See if you can place 500 words into it.
Thanks,

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

Sorry there wasn't enough detail in my initial message Larry.
Perhaps I should include a specific case to explain this, as it might help to illustrate the question better.
What I am looking to do is map a return value from the HP/Compaq Insight agent's temperature monitoring table to the value defined in a Look Up Table in the CPQHLTH-MIB. For example:
The raw (unenumerated) values would be:
CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.1 = INTEGER: 5
CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.2 = INTEGER: 6
CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.4 = INTEGER: 10
CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.5 = INTEGER: 3
The corresponding mapped (enumerated) values would be:
CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.1 = INTEGER: ioBoard(5)
CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.2 = INTEGER: cpu(6)
CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.4 = INTEGER: powerSupply(10)
CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.5 = INTEGER: system(3)
I would like to use the enumerated results in the title of a graph. Currently, I am using the following section of a XML snmp_query to make the (unenumerated) value available to graphs:
<snip>
<cpqHeTemperatureLocale>
<name>System Board Locale</name>
<method>walk</method>
<source>value</source>
<direction>input</direction>
<oid>.1.3.6.1.4.1.232.6.2.6.8.1.3.1</oid>
</cpqHeTemperatureLocale>
</snip>
Would it be possible to use the return value of CPQHLTH-MIB::cpqHeTemperatureLocale.1.1 (.1.3.6.1.4.1.232.6.2.6.8.1.3.1.1) as 'ioBoard' instead of '5'?

That would require the use of the MIB files and Cacti doesn't currently care about the MIB files. As doing so can slow down the polling process.
As for the future, I don't know..
