[CentOS] Tons of SNMP ?errors? in /var/log/messages
I'm running up-to-date CentOS 5 w/ Xen. I'm getting tons (tons = 13787 just yesterday, presumably because I have a monitoring system poll every 5 minutes) of log entries of the following: netsnmp_assert index == tmp failed if-mib/data_access/interface.c:467 _access_interface_entry_save_name() and netsnmp_assert rc == 0 failed if-mib/ifTable/ifTable_data_access.c:209 _check_interface_entry_for_updates() When I do an SNMPWalk, everything looks ok (now that IPv6 is back on) on the host doing the walking, but on the other side it is spewing the above messages. I have not been able to find out anything about these. I had IPv6 turned off (by the "alias net-pf-10 off" method), but in troubleshooting these messages I turned it back on (because there were other snmpd messages complaining about unable to find ipv6 entries). Anyone have some knowledge about this? --Tim ___________________________________________________________________ / No one regards what is before his feet; we all gaze at the stars. \ \ -- Quintus Ennius / ------------------------------------------------------------------- \ \ \ \ /\ ( ) .( o ).

Does anybody have any experience in gathering that kind of data from SNMP with or without the agent from HP? I have a DL580 G2 if that matters. --Tim _________________________________________ / malpractice, n.: \ \ The reason surgeons wear masks. / ----------------------------------------- \ \ \ \ /\ ( ) .( o ).
