Hi,

This issue is caused by redhat changing the way their snmpd reports memory usage, and then by a very loud user stamping his feet repeatedly for several days until we made some changes to handle redhat's foolish change.

There's no good way to handle this change, because it was made in a minor revision to RHEL 7 update packages.

Likely it'll start behaving properly if you update. If not, who knows. It's difficult for us to know wether any given installation is modified or not.

Note that this is RHEL changing the behaviour of net-snmpd itself, so that it now behaves differently to every other distro. They're technically fixing something, but they've done it in the stupidest way imaginable.

Mail some poop to the RHEL guys who decided to make a major API change in a minor update. It won't fix it, but it'll make you feel amazing.

Adam.

Hello,

The obeservium is showing negative value for used memory (please see attachment).

Is there any configuration changes can be made on the observim so that it shows the correct value

Please let me know if any additional information needed.

Thank you
