Hi all,
I have what I hope is a trivial question, but I'm having trouble
identifying a resolution to the issue.
I have a number of OpenVZ based VMs running CentOS 6.3 /64bit
I find that net-snmp (standard version available via yum on centOS6, which
is net-snmpd version 5.5 I believe) behaves consistently like this; in
contrast on the same physical nodes / hosting OpenVZ VMs running CentOS 5.X
/ 64bit - this behavioral was not an issue.
What I'm seeing:
The log file, /var/log/messages - gets frequent messages logged, as follows:
Jul 11 18:03:59 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:04 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:09 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:14 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:19 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:24 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:29 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:34 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:39 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
Jul 11 18:04:44 hostname snmpd[1779]: /proc/partitions: No such file or
directory
I am using the same snmpd.conf file I have used in the past on my CentOS
5.X based hosts (which never was a problem ...)
I do note, that /proc/partitions does indeed not exist inside the OpenVZ
VM. I'm wondering if there is some graceful way to tell snmpd to simply
'not worry' about this, and to please stop logging these messages - which
tend to make my messages logfiles quite big and ungainly in the long term.
Any pointers or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Many thanks!
Tim
