Next,This mib has a scalar object - freeSpaceAvailable. I am trying to use this one.
1) First I translated this using snmptranslate
$snmptranslate -m +RASP-MIB -IR -On freeSpaceAvailable
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9100.1.1
2) Next, I have generated mib2c code -
env MIBS="+RASP-MIB" mibc2c freeSpaceAvailable
3) Next, I have modified this file to return a hardcoded value
4) Compiled it as subAgent
$net-snmp-config --compile-subagent mysubagent freeSpaceAvailable.c
5) Started snmp daemon
sudo service snmpd start
6) tested whether it is working or not
snmpwalk localhost -c public -v1
7) Running my sub-agent
$./mysubagent &
$pidof mysubagent
27709
Now, not sure why do I get this problem?
$snmpget -v 1 -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.9100.1.1
Error in packet
Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.
Failed object: iso.3.6.1.4.1.9100.1.1

It seems like main SNMP daemon doesn't get notified at all. I have added a debug information in
/etc/default/snmpd
SNMPDOPTS='-LS 0-4 d -Lf /dev/null -u snmp -g snmp -I -smux,mteTrigger,mteTriggerConf -p /var/run/snmpd.pid'
in the syslog -
sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog

Even if I kill or spawn the mysubagent, it doesn't make any difference.
