First, have you verified that the perc agent is actually running on the
remote host?

ps -ef | grep perc

Furthermore, you're certainly not going to be able to connect to your
remote server via SNMP by using the default percsnmpd.conf file.

If you are able to connect to your host using the original snmpd.conf file
with the added perc statements, then you are fine.

Next, are you running SNMP v1 or v2?  That's important as you have to
provide the correct version to the plugin.

Lastly, what happens when you do an snmpwalk from the remote host using the
following?

snmpwalk -c wiband -v 2c localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.3582

You should get a bunch of valid, snmp output.  If not, try using version 1.
If you do get valid output, then SNMP/percSNMP are setup correctly on that
host.

Well, if I use the default snmpd.conf, I can connect to the host using
snmpwalk locally and from the nagios host, but I can't see anything
related to the perc array. It is this configuration that causes the perl
substr error when I run check_sasraid_megaraid.

Renaming percsnmpd.conf -> snmpd.conf, I can't connect to the host at
all either using snmpwalk or the script.

Both conf files have a line "pass .1.3.6.1.4.1.3582 /usr/sbin/percmain"
as the last line of the file, but I don't understand enough about snmp
(reading the docs is giving me a headache! :) to be able to connect the
dots.

Would you share relevant snmpd.conf info for me, James?

Much thanks for your patience and advice.
