you will need need to find out what SNMP OID is that relates to the Solaris Resource pools you want to monitor. Then run the plain SNMP wizard and add them there.

You would need to consult Solaris SNMP documentation for Resource pools. We do not have these systems in house.

You would then use the OID when running the SNMP wizard

Use the SNMP wizard, not the Linux SNMP wizard. Step 2 in that wizard will have an input box for your OID.

You will have to refer to Solaris SNMP documentation for the relevant OIDs.

I couldn't get the correct OID for solaris zpool usage to monitor, Is there any other wizard in Nagios XI that can monitor Solaris Zpool usage?

I'm not sure the zpool information is directly readable from SNMP without extending it.

I found this:

http://www.competa.com/blog/monitoring- ... with-snmp/

Almost everything I found is related to running some remote plugin through NRPE/NCPA:

https://www.claudiokuenzler.com/blog/34 ... 842TvlRfmE

All the ones related to SNMP have listed examples of how to extend SNMP so that it can monitor the zpools, you'll likely need to do that if you have to use SNMP, I was unable to find a SNMP plugin that does it.
