Try this
./check_snmp_storage.pl -H serverip -C public -m '^/$' -w 2 -c 4
Also, could you run this

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -v 2c -c public serverip 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.3

It looks like this host isn't returning data for these OIDS.

You will need to configure snmp on the remote machine to be sure this community string has access to the OIDs
