How this information looks like? 

The OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.1 is defined as follows in the mibs: 

Code Block
diskIOIndex OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX      Integer32 (0..65535)
    MAX-ACCESS  read-only
    STATUS      current
    DESCRIPTION
        "Reference index for each observed device."
    ::= { diskIOEntry 1 }

Doing a snmpwalk

snmpwalk -c COMMUNITY -v 2c localhost 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1

Code Block
1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.1.1 = INTEGER: 1
1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.1.2 = INTEGER: 2
1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.1.3 = INTEGER: 3
1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.2.1 = STRING: "fd0"
1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.2.2 = STRING: "sdb"
1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.2.3 = STRING: "sda"

So, in this case, 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.1 is the index OID, and by default, it will use the last digit (By default) as the index, 1, 2 & 3 in the example: 

1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.1.1, 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.1.2

rrd section
