10034.0. "snmp error explanation please." by KERNEL::WARDJO () Tue Jun 03 1997 13:18

    Hello,
    
    Customer has an alphserver 1000 4200 running unix v4.0b and once a day
    the following error is reported in the daemon log and also reported by the
    HP openview system.
    
    svr system_mib [430]:svr sytem_mib star start ERROR esnmp_poll.c line
    685: method routine returned invalid status: 2
    
    Does anyone know what this means, or point me in the direction of where
    I can find out.
    
    Thanks,

I'm the DRI for the Server Management project.  As such, I'm the one responsible
for svrSystem_mib subagent.

I am currently looking into the cause of this and some related messages.

You can help me some if you would please send me (or post here) the results
of the following UNIX commands:

ps -eaf | grep mib
ps -eaf | grep snmp
ps -eaf | grep envmon

Run these commands after you notice the message, but before a reboot.

Thanks.

10034.3Information you requested.KERNEL::WARDJOThu Jun 05 1997 11:5926
    Here is the information you requested:-
    
    $ ps -eaf | grep env
    root       435     1  0.0   May 15 ??           8:50.55 sysmansh
    /usr/sbin/envmond -ui cli
    jhf       2495 12807  0.0 15:07:38 ttyp6        0:00.01 grep env
    
    $ ps -eaf | grep mib
    root       412     1  0.0   May 15 ??           0:10.38
    /usr/sbin/os_mibs
    root       430     1  0.0   May 15 ??           1:20.46
    /usr/sbin/svrSystem_mib
    jhf      28782 12807  0.0 15:06:47 ttyp6        0:00.01 grep mib
    $ ps -eaf |grep snmp
    root       414     1  0.0   May 15 ??           3:20.52 /usr/sbin/snmpd
    jhf       1486 12807  0.0 15:07:06 ttyp6        0:00.01 grep snmp
    $
    
    When the error occurs, the customer does not have to reboot. It does
    not appear to cause a problem but the customer would like to know what
    it means.
    
    Thanks,
