i try to get some temperature values from a Comet H3530 connected by lan. I use the newest snmp_metric plugin and upgradet to the latest 2.4.0p12.
When i configure the plugin and save i get the error shown in the picture.
The host has an ipv4 address and in the plugin the $hostaddress$ variable is used.
I have the same issue on Checkmk Enterprise 2.3.0p26 and plugin version 1.0.3. I’m trying to monitor a MIB variable on a Juniper Firewall, which is monitored in Checkmk via SNMPv3. I’ve used this plugin succesfully in the past but with SNMPv2c.
So, just a week after Steffen opened this issue. Talk about bad timing.
Unfortunately, I cannot use the latest version, because my Checkmk is at 2.3 and I cannot upgrade it at the moment. In the mean time, I’ve found a workaround. There is another SNMP plugin on Checkmk Exchange by the same author, called “Ruleset for check_snmp” ( Checkmk Exchange ). I installed version 0.5.3, which is the last version supporting Checkmk 2.3 and it works without a problem (even though on import, Checkmk notes it uses a deprecated check).
