F.Y.I. I have this one on my<snmp-device-properties>  section.
maxvars = "30"

And from the debug log file, this is the entry when the alarm triggered
18:41:05 Device-Name: SNMP error status [[93 query = QUERY_CustomRouter]] genErr (5), 
index=16, oid=""

genErr (5) is a "general error" in the SNMP response. The agent at the other end will report this error when it runs into an unexpected failure. It usually means that the agent couldn't retrieve the value of an OID due to a bug. In this case, the 'genErr' is complaining about the 16'th oid, which doesn't appear to exist in the response packet, but appeared in your request.

It looks like InterMapper continues to process the SNMP response in spite of the genErr error status. The response packet may contain zero values, thus triggering your threshold.

You might try setting maxvars to 15 or changing the order of the OID's in your probe. You want the OID that occasionally elicits the genErr to never be in the same SNMP request as the critical OID's that trigger your threshold.
