check_snmp_storage_wizard.pl script Error Integer Length

[aiqbal0612]

All, Thank in advance for reading my post.
I am using SNMP V3 With this standard Plugin check_snmp_storage_wizard.pl but i am running into an error only for few servers of in my environment.

error is Description Table/Type Table: the Integer Length is too long (5 Bytes)

I am using following command

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_storage_wizard.pl -H xx.xx.xx.xx --login=xyzuser --passwd=xyz --protocols=md5 -q FixedDisk -m /[bcdgfhklmnpqrstvxz] -w 90 -c 95 --octetlength=65535


I would really appreciate the help

Hello,

Not exactly sure why this is happening on only a few servers, but the plugin is returning too much data. You can add a -v (verbose output)to the check command to get more information.

Additionally, try testing from the command line and reducing the number for mount points until it runs successfully,

@benjaminsmith It works with lesser mount points but as soon as i increase number of mount points i.e. use a wild card as mentioned. it errors out on the servers.

Hello @aiqbal0612,

The plugin is not written to parse that much data. I would recommend breaking this into multiple as a workaround.
