Re: SNMP Waiting for traps

After you edited the snmptt.conf file, did you restart the snmptt daemon?

The reason a trap shows up in the unknown log is that the OID doesn't match what is if the snmptt.conf file.
What you posted looks correct but it still isn't working.

Can you run the following on the XI server and post the output?

Code: Select all

grep -i dying /usr/share/snmp/mibs/*
grep -i cseShutDownNotify /usr/share/snmp/mibs/*

Hi tgriep,

I restarted the SNMPTT deamon

Here is the requested output:

[root@localhost ~]# grep -i dying /usr/share/snmp/mibs/*
grep: /usr/share/snmp/mibs/processed_mibs: Is a directory
[root@localhost ~]# grep -i cseShutDownNotify /usr/share/snmp/mibs/*
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/CISCO-SYSTEM-EXT-MIB.txt: - cseShutDownNotify
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/CISCO-SYSTEM-EXT-MIB.txt:cseShutDownNotify NOTIFICATION-TYPE
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/CISCO-SYSTEM-EXT-MIB.txt: "The implementation of cseShutDownNotify is mandatory.
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/CISCO-SYSTEM-EXT-MIB.txt: cseShutDownNotify,
grep: /usr/share/snmp/mibs/processed_mibs: Is a directory
[root@localhost ~]#

Edit your snmptt.ini file and change the following from

Code: Select all

translate_integers = 1
to

Code: Select all

translate_integers = 0
Save and restart the snmptt daemon and see if that works for you.

If you are still having issues, take a look at this link to see if it helps.

Hi tgriep,

That did not solve the issue :(
I will take a look at the FAQ and let you know if I found the issue.

Best Regards

That setting was the last thing I could think of.
Try running through the FAQ and see if anything in there helps.
