Hi Team,

Suddenly iam getting lot of alerts for check_snmp:

"CRITICAL - Plugin timed out while executing system call"

configured command is: check_snmp:
$USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$

Can you please advice on this

Hello, @Soumya2925. Perhaps the SNMP community string changed? Can you test this by running an snmp walk command against the server?
Also, please execute the command you sent me from the command line with all arguments and share the output.

Looks like you're missing some MIBs.

Please run this command and PM one of us the resulting /tmp/SNMPFILES.zip file:

Code: Select all

zip -r /tmp/SNMPFILES.zip /etc/snmp /usr/share/snmp/mibs
Thank you!

Looks like you're missing CISCO-SMI, please upload that MIB and then send me the full output of this command so that I can view the permissions:

Code: Select all

ls -l /usr/share/snmp/mibs
