I'm very interested to see what you've done. Would you mind posting them?

I cobbled together a simple ksh script (meets most of the plugin
standards) that uses snmpdf from the net-snmp package.  It fetches all
filesystem info via snmpdf and then looks up all of the parameters for the
the filesystems I want to monitor for that host.  It simply gives the all
clear they all passed or warning/critical threshold information for that
filesystem(s).  This means I have one service defined for each host that
checks all of the filesystems I'm interested in and I can update the
configuration file on the fly.  If you don't have the snmpdf tool, I'm
sure there's an wasy way to get what you want with snmpwalk and the right
oid.

I'll be glad to share what I did with you and others.  I've put a few
other ksh scripts like this to monitor the load avg and remote processes
by fetching the data I need with snmp.
