<![CDATA[Two snmp requests in one dci]]>Hello

What is the best approach to make dci that queries 2 separate snmp oids, does some math with them and then returns the output. is it possible to do in one dci, or is multiple required?

Example:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.131072 - returns 11320 (/1024 = 11mb)
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.131072 - returns 16384 (/1024 = 16mb)
Output = 16-11 = 4mb

Its Mikrotik disk usage.

Yes, it's correct

if(diskSize == null || diskUsed == null) { return null; }

There's a small chance that SNMPGetValue may return null (e.g. communication gets broken exactly when these requests are made), so you may want to check diskSize and diskUsed for null.

transport = CreateSNMPTransport($node);
if (transport == null) { return null; }

diskSize = SNMPGetValue(transport,".1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.131072");
diskUsed = SNMPGetValue(transport,".1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.131072");

if(diskSize == null || diskUsed == null) { return null; }

free = diskSize - diskUsed;
free = free * 1024;


return free;

" free = free * 1024; " is because otherwise unit b(IEC) was showing incorrectly.

is there anything that could be improved on this script?

But if you don't need to keep the intermediary values, they you can do everything just in one DCI.

Create s script in script library and Script DCI that uses that script. Check this example for script contents: https://www.netxms.org/documentation/nxsl-latest/#func-snmpgetvalue
