Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

Recently i wanted to start using snmp-traps as well as snmp pooling

However what i've notices is that:
snmptt service is up and running:
nagios@lpchim0003[import]> systemctl status snmptt
● snmptt.service - SNMP Trap Translator (SNMPTT)
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/snmptt.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: active (running) since Mon 2021-05-24 13:34:54 CEST; 2min 35s ago
Process: 11960 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/snmptt --daemon (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
Main PID: 11964 (snmptt)
Tasks: 2
Memory: 15.6M
CGroup: /system.slice/snmptt.service
├─11963 /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/snmptt --daemon
└─11964 /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/snmptt --daemon

However nagios is reporting it as down (attached image)

How i can fix this so nagios is able to process snmp-traps?

Hi

Do you have the Enterprise Edition of XI? You can find out by
going to Admin, System Config, License Information.


Thanks

Yes we do have Entrepries Features with license as per attachement

Hi,

In a shell please run:
snmptrap -v 2c -c public 127.0.0.1 '' linkUp ifDescr s eth0 ifAdminStatus i 1 ifOperStatus i 1

1. Once you execute this command you'll see the following logged in the /var/log/snmptt/snmptt.log file:
Mon Nov 28 11:15:42 2016 .1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.4 Normal "Status Events" localhost - Link up on interface eth0. Admin state: up. Operational state: up


2. Please check the /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log file:

[1480298939] Warning: Passive check result was received for service 'SNMP Traps' on host 'localhost', but the service could not be found!
[1480298939] Error: External command failed -> PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;localhost;SNMP Traps;0;Link up on interface eth0. Admin state: up. Operational state: up / ifDescr (OCTETSTR):eth0 ifAdminStatus (INTEGER):up ifOperStatus (INTEGER):up

Let me know what you see in the logs (both 1 & 2)

Thanks
