Environment
Debian, Ubuntu
Problem
After starting the snmpd service, the following messages appear in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/net-snmpd.log
error on subcontainer ‘ia_addr’ insert (-1)
error on subcontainer ‘ia_addr’ insert (-1)
The error occurs every a few seconds and fills the log.
Solution
The problem is snmpd reports all errors to syslog, because of default setting in /etc/defaults/snmpd.
To log only up to info level, and not debug, change these to lines as follows:
SNMPDOPTS=’-LS6d -Lf /dev/null -u snmp -g snmp -I -smux -p /var/run/snmpd.pid’
TRAPDOPTS=’-LS6d -p /var/run/snmptrapd.pid’
going from -Lsd to -LS6d lowers the debug level sent to syslog. Refer to
Logging Options section in snmpcmd manpage for more information.
