What is startdatestring?
This OID returns a human-readable string representation of the date when the agent process started, formatted for easy interpretation. Network dashboards display this information to provide immediate visibility into when the current agent instance began executing. A concrete example might be '2026-06-22' or 'Mon Jun 22 14:30:45' depending on the formatting convention.
