I added a devmon template for IronPort to the devmon subversion a few months 
ago. The next release of the devmon templates will include it, but it's easy 
enough to pull it out of svn.

http://devmon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/devmon/trunk/templates/ironport-
asyncos/

Unfortunately, there are some minor issues with how the SNMP agent on the 
Ironport was implemented:
-The perCentCPUUtilization value is quite erratic (seems to be an immediate 
value, not an averaged value), so we see it spike up to 90% or more at times 
when the average according to the graph is about 50%. I will try and add 
averaged values in the devmon template ...
-I think in the case of a disk failure, the entire branch goes missing, so the 
test will go clear, with the message 'Missing repeater data for primary OID 
raidID'
