Hi, I am seeing an issue with net-SNMP-5.9.1 configured to send informs where I get an error that maximum sockets 1024 are opened and no more files can be opened. I even tried net-SNMP-5.9.5.2 as well.
This issue surfaces after a time frame of about 240 days with 4 Informs every day. To accelerate the issue, I configured it to send informs every 10 sec with a retry of 1 min. I see an error after about 2 hours of run time. I did run a tcpdump command during the testing to confirm I receive acknowledgements from the trap receiver. There are occasional missed acknowledgements and I see a retry with a successful acknowledgement. watch -n 1 "ls /proc/<PID>/fd | wc -l" gives output as 1024 which is the default socket limit in our Linux. I tried SNMP GET for every 5 sec with no issue in the number of sockets. So GETs are not a problem. Errors I see are: /proc/stat: Too many open files interface_linux: cannot open /proc/net/dev: Too many open files interface_linux: cannot open /proc/net/dev: Too many open files /proc/stat: Too many open files interface_linux: cannot open /proc/net/dev: Too many open files Agent configuration: compiled for V2C agent Agent is generating Informs from a posix thread that is actively waiting for the events. send_v2trap() is used to generate Informs. snmpd.conf file: (retry count is 72, interval is 1 min) rwcommunity private trapsess -v 2c -Ci -c tech -r 72 -t 60 192.168.1.100:162 Any inputs in this regard are greatly appreciated. Regards, Raj.
