Actually, 3com explained this little quirk a while ago (check the archives). For some reason, they designed it to show CPU utilization above average, rather than an absolute value. i.e. if you normally run at 20% cpu usage, and suddenly peak to 30%, in theory "show cpu" would show 10%. And it *does* on occasion show a non-zero value (we graph it with MRTG) -- it's just really rare. So it's not broken, just designed really really strangely. :) (An absolute value would be much more useful.)

Don't use sho CPU utilization:
HiPer>> sho cpu utILIZATION
CPU Utilization: Instantaneous : 0% Last Minute : 0% Last Hour : 0% Last Day : 0%
This is with 60+ calls... ANOTHER 3COM BUG!

What is the best way to determine the amount of load a hiperarc is under? Is there an oid for the total control chassis back plane usage, or something similar? How do you determine the amount of processor usage on a total control chassis? Any advice would be appreciated.
