Host Resources MIB
Status of this Memo
This RFC specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
Official Protocol Standards" for the standardization state and status
of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
Abstract
This memo defines a MIB for use with managing host systems. The term
"host" is construed to mean any computer that communicates with other
similar computers attached to the internet and that is directly used
by one or more human beings. Although this MIB does not necessarily
apply to devices whose primary function is communications services
(e.g., terminal servers, routers, bridges, monitoring equipment),
such relevance is not explicitly precluded. This MIB instruments
attributes common to all internet hosts including, for example, both
personal computers and systems that run variants of Unix.

RFC 1514 Host Resources MIB September 1993 1. The Network Management Framework The Internet-standard Network Management Framework consists of three components. They are: STD 16, RFC 1155 [1] which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for describing and naming objects for the purpose of management. STD 16, RFC 1212 [2] defines a more concise description mechanism, which is wholly consistent with the SMI. STD 17, RFC 1213 [3] which defines MIB-II, the core set of managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols. STD 15, RFC 1157 [4] which defines the SNMP, the protocol used for network access to managed objects. The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of experimentation and evaluation. Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. Within a given MIB module, objects are defined using STD 16, RFC 1212's OBJECT-TYPE macro. At a minimum, each object has a name, a syntax, an access-level, and an implementation-status. The name is an object identifier, an administratively assigned name, which specifies an object type. The object type together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify a specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, we often use a textual string, termed the object descriptor, to also refer to the object type. The syntax of an object type defines the abstract data structure corresponding to that object type. The ASN.1[5] language is used for this purpose. However, RFC 1155 purposely restricts the ASN.1 constructs which may be used. These restrictions are explicitly made for simplicity. The access-level of an object type defines whether it makes "protocol sense" to read and/or write the value of an instance of the object type. (This access-level is independent of any administrative authorization policy.) The implementation-status of an object type indicates whether the object is mandatory, optional, obsolete, or deprecated. Grillo & Waldbusser [Page 2]
RFC 1514 Host Resources MIB September 1993 2. Host Resources MIB The Host Resources MIB defines a uniform set of objects useful for the management of host computers. Host computers are independent of the operating system, network services, or any software application. The Host Resources MIB defines objects which are common across many computer system architectures. In addition, there are objects in MIB-II [3] which also provide host management functionality. Implementation of the System and Interfaces groups is mandatory for implementors of the Host Resources MIB. 3.

An entry shall be placed in the storage table for each logical area of storage that is allocated and has fixed resource limits. The amount of storage represented in an entity is the amount actually usable by the requesting entity, and excludes loss due to formatting or file system reference information. These entries are associated with logical storage areas, as might be seen by an application, rather than physical storage entities which are typically seen by an operating system. Storage such as tapes and floppies without file systems on them are typically not allocated in chunks by the operating system to requesting applications, and therefore shouldn't appear in this table. Examples of valid storage for this table include disk partitions, file systems, ram (for some architectures this is further segmented into regular memory, extended memory, and so on), backing store for virtual memory (`swap space'). This table is intended to be a useful diagnostic for `out of memory' and `out of buffers' types of failures. In addition, it can be a useful performance monitoring tool for tracking memory, disk, or buffer usage." Grillo & Waldbusser [Page 7]
