Good morning,
We recently noticed that SNMP is having difficulty handling large file sysystem. We have a 120TB XFS system that is reporting on 4.4TB and alerting because SNMP is reporting the wrong values.
snmpwalk -mALL -v2c -{COM} {HOST} hrStorageTable | grep 40
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageIndex.40 = INTEGER: 40
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageType.40 = OID: HOST-RESOURCES-TYPES::hrStorageFixedDisk
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.40 = STRING: /home
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageAllocationUnits.40 = INTEGER: 4096 Bytes
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageSize.40 = INTEGER: 1186465536
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageUsed.40 = INTEGER: 1036605829
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageUsed.44 = INTEGER: 666446640
Some forums have indicated this can be resolved by upgrading to 64 bit integers but I am not an SNMP expert.
Has anyone seen this behavior and if so how do we work around it? In the HPC world this is a small name space so I worry about monitoring storage on our Lustre FS.
Thanks

Hi Rhian,
First off, please don't hijack threads - this has nothing to do with
mod_auth_kerb.
Second, yes, you need an snmpd supporting the high capacity storage
tables. Net-SNMP supports this from 5.7 on, if you don't disable if via
compile options, so an upgrade might be in order.

Sorry regarding the hijack. I thought I had created a new message and copied the list address into it.
Thank you, and yes Redhat uses a rather old net-snmp.
