Hi Everyone,

Nagios ver is 5.4.12
We are receiving below error on service check for few of the server on / usage checks.
"ERROR: Description/Type table : The message size exceeded the buffer maxMsgSize of 1472."

We are using attached script for the service check.
Attached system profile as well.
Please advise.

Thanks!

Hello,

Run the check_snmp_storage.pl command and all of the necessary args from the XI terminal and increase your octetlength size. Its the -o flag.

When running the command add this option to the end of it.

Code: Select all

-o 20000
Please post the full command and the output.

Thanks.
