After an unspecified period of time, SNMP requests fail and subsnmpd reports that it has been terminated.
Loss of snmp data set to a client. The /var/log/snmpd.log contains numerous messages similar to the following: Received broken packet. Closing session. The /var/log/sflow_agent.log contains numerous messages similar to the following: AgentX session to master agent attempted to be re-opened.
SNMP polls sent to a system start to fail after a few days, until subsnmpd is restarted. When in the failed state, you can determine the status of subsnmpd by running the following command: tmsh show sys services. Here is an example of the status when the system is in this state: subsnmpd run (pid 4649) 26 days, got TERM.
Restart subsnmpd using the following command: bigstart restart subsnmpd.
SNMP requests handling has been improved to ensure that requests no longer fail after a number of days.
