Linux Agent common features that are needed

Having used Solarwinds for the past several months and being a Linux Admin using Zabbix the following features need to be added to the Linux agent:

cpu idle time
cpu interrupt time
context switches per second
free swap space
free swap space %
host boot time
hostname changes
number of logged in users
number of processes running
number of opened files
system uptime
process load broken out in 1, 5, 15 minute

As a note my work around has been writing perl scripts to get the data.

But since zabbix is open source Solarwinds should take some of the code or see what Zabbix is doing and follow their lead.

Just sayin'

process load broken out in 1, 5, 15 minute has been added in Orion Platform 2018.2 included with NPM 12.3 and SAM 6.6.1 currently in Release Candidate.

Yes I saw that with NPM and that was my initial dilemma to go the route of net-snmp or linux agent with snmpv3. I chose the latter for now. That is very cool that 6.6.1 will have that in there.
