Yes. Well, sort-of. It is certainly possible to configure the agent to run a command when it receives a SET request. (e.g. using the "extendfix" mechanism) It is also possible to configure the agent to apply an internal SET request (rather than sending a trap) when certain events occur. See the snmpd.conf(5) section on the DisMan Event MIB - in particular, the setEvent token. > I want to keep an eye on disk space and when it gets to high remove > some log files.

Use "entendfix" (or the nsExtend tables directly) to configure this command to be run "on demand". > when the free space get's to low. Configure the agent (using "monitor") to send a trap when this happens. Then tweak that monitor directive to invoke a SET on the extendfix instance instead.
