multiprocessor sparc - ticks vs % CPU usage

[csgonan]

I have a multiprocessor sparc v440 and I'm trying to monitor cpu usage. The mibs are showing ticks, but I don't see any for % or usage. I was reading and someone indicated the this is the way its done for mutliprocessor systems. Is there a mib for each cpu just to see the % usage. I don't quite understand the tick difference and how it is used to measure how the cpus are performing.


I am using

1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.50, 11.52, etc.

Thank you

I also tried 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.11.0 which may be Idle CPU %, but is that for 1 processor or all processors (or invalid)?

Thanks

I installed net-snmp 5.4 and the were mibs for hrProcessorLoad (1 for each cpu).
