Hi,

I'm using a custom SNMP Library Mib file from the Device vendor, I was able to use traffic and memory MIBs but not the CPU usage, when adding a CPU sensor in Channel Display I can only choose Downtime and Response time in ms. The data I'm looking for (CPU usage in %) is in the Message portion of Sensor, is there a way to use the message to display as the main channel?

Hello,
This sounds like the OID returns the CPU usage as string instead of a numerical value. In order to display values in a channel, it has to be a numerical value. You can either try using the Value extraction using Regular Expression or using our native CPU load sensor instead.

Hi Timo,

I was trying the native snmp CPU load sensor without luck, right now I followed your first suggestion and RegEx worked perfectly.

Thank you
