I understand that, but here are some points why I chose my post:
1: not sure about the persons knowledge re snmp 2: dont know the guys hardware and packages installed 3: seeing uptime and uname explains other parts of the MRTG system, i.e. required return values of the scripts 4: portabilty 5: most of the time server are cruising below their capacity, adding a few more cycles because calling scripts etc does not really matter

I check system load like so:
[root@server cron.daily]# w 10:07:33 up 4 days, 15:01, 2 users, load average: 4.22, 3.17, 3.09
I would like to to graph the 3.17 5 minute average with MRTG. Anyone know of some examples of doing this?
Make yourself a script, include this:
[...]
That is doing it the hard way. Use scripts only if there isn't an OID for what you want.
Target[hostname_load]: laLoadInt.2&laLoadInt.2:community@host:::::2 RouterUptime[hostname_load]: community@host:::::2 MaxBytes[hostname_load]: 30000 Title[hostname_load]: System Load Factor[hostname_load]: 0.01 YTicsFactor[hostname_load]: 0.01 YLegend[hostname_load]: System Load Legend1[hostname_load]: Load Legend2[hostname_load]: Legend3[hostname_load]: Legend4[hostname_load]: LegendI[hostname_load]: Load LegendO[hostname_load]: ShortLegend[hostname_load]: load Options[hostname_load]: gauge,growright,nopercent Directory[hostname_load]: hostname
Make sure you load the correct MIB otherwise you might have to use the OID instead of the symbolic name.
