Thanks Wes... Your direction helped. I found giving 1200 also having same issue. It was *not* a timing issue. I am getting " snmp_build: unknown failuresend response: Error building ASN.1 representation (build objid: bad first subidentifier)" error in my snmpd dump, when the getbulk is failing. I have to look into this in detail, but if any inputs on this error will be very helpful. My current feeling is I am not dealing properly with the OBJECT IDENTIFIER item in my getbulk.

I have given -t RV> 60 in the getbulk but still 2 out of 10(Not exactly) getbulk RV> requests are getting timed out. Two problems may be happening: 1) "-t 60" isn't enough. If the agent can't respond that fast looking up the information then you won't get the response. 2) The second attempt by your getbulk app will try again and the agent may still be processing the original one so the second one will take longer to respond since it won't be processed till the first one finishes. Why don't you run your request with -t 1200 and time it? (some objects take a long time to process, others are quick... different parts of the mib tree will have different speeds) -- Wes Hardaker Sparta, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-users mailing list [email protected] Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users DISCLAIMER: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The contents of this e-mail and any attachment(s) are confidential and intended for the named recipient(s) only.
