Could it be a DNS issue? Please try changing it to an IP address instead of the DNS name and see if you're still able to replicate:
Code: Select all
./check_snmp_win.pl -H 192.168.10.10 -C xxxx -n 'BES Client'
Also, please send the output of these commands (run as root):
Code: Select all
ps aux | grep nagios.cfg
ipcs -q
tail -n100 /var/log/messages
Thank you

Here are the commands (I tested using the linux check as we have the same issue with both scripts):
[root@prdmon1 libexec]# ./check_snmp_process_wizard.pl -H 199.214.10.76 -C xxxx --v2c -n 'BESClient' -w '0' -c '0'
1 process matching BESClient (> 0)

At this point short of the Nagios server sending a malformed packet I would agree it seems to be a network issue as midway through the UDP conversation I see the Nagios server send a packet that is not received at the remote host. The conversation does die at that point regardless of the timeout set.

Ah ok, good catch on the UDP loss!
You do have multiple kernel message queues, that can cause strange issues (but should not have interfered with command line testing), you should still fix it though:
Please run these commands to fix the message queues:
Code: Select all
service nagios stop
ps aux | grep nagios.cfg | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2'} | xargs kill -9
service ndo2db stop
service mysqld restart
for i in `ipcs -q | grep nagios |awk '{print $2}'`; do ipcrm -q $i; done
service ndo2db start
service nagios start
Try running a continuous ping from the XI server and see if any fail, let it run for a minute or so:
Thank you

I got a syntax error running "ps aux | grep nagios.cfg | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2'} | xargs kill -9"
I (perhaps) foolishly ran the rest of the commands and here is the new ipcs output.
[root@prdmon1 ~]# ipcs -q
------ Message Queues --------
key msqid owner perms used-bytes messages
0x7c010002 32768 nagios 600 0 0
I also ran a continuous ping for 2 minutes to the remote host and didn't see any lost packets even while concurrently running failing snmp checks.
At this point unless you have any ideas I guess I will have to pinpoint where the packet is being dropped and for what reason.

Just throwing this out there, you could use iperf or netcat to test for UDP which may be helpful. I've seen setups where there is TCP/UDP filtering in place, with ICMP having nothing.
Netcat would also allow you to probe the SNMP port specifically, which could help with the digging.
