Maybe it shouldn't be the case, but its the solution provided by Nagios support...
Code: Select all
# grep ^mode /etc/snmp/snmptt.ini
mode = daemon
Its set to daemon on all 4 Nagios boxes.

Interesting, I've never actually seen that before.
I know that if you make changes in the interface to the snmptt config or add MIBs through the interface snmptt needs to be restarted in order for those changes to take effect but not that it would stop processing them if the nagios process was just restarted.
I'll talk to the other techs tomorrow when we're all in the office to see what the deal is, if that is a requirement we should add it by default or when running the trap installer script.

I'm pretty sure its in this thread:
https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewto ... 16&t=34708
I think that when it happens, the service snmptt restart fails to stop the service, but restarts it. This is mentioned in the thread.
No need to discuss this topic in this thread...
