Thanks Alex,

The cachemgr output is in text form only as far as I can see, and a
little inconsistently formatted. I can imagine that users do sometimes
want to import this data into their monitoring tool of choice. Is
there or has there been any discussion on a direction for providing
this sort of thing for users? Presumably demand for the SNMP interface
is low in the user base.

Jason.
