hello David
maybe i can help a little, i've cx3-20, snmp-walking is very poor (there 
is no standard for sps, except one little mib on fibre alliance 
http://www.fiberalliance.com/fb/index.htm - you can enable this in 
network settings on storage processor). so i've wrote the config for 
snmptt based on cx3 docs and configured new monitor-template in 
navisphere with snmp traps.

here is the config for snmptt (you can bypass regex lines):

[code]
