#1832 5.4 HP-UX: memAvailSwap.0 = -2 kB

[David Herring]

I'm running version 5.4-1 of net-snmp (binaries downloaded from net-snmp site at sourceforge) on an HP-UX B.11.11 machine, and swap space is being incorrectly reported. For example, this command:

snmpget -v1 -Cf -c public localhost UCD-SNMP-MIB::memAvailSwap.0

yields the following output:

UCD-SNMP-MIB::memAvailSwap.0 = INTEGER: -2 kB

The machine has way more than -2 kB of swap; the output of swapinfo is:

         Kb      Kb      Kb   PCT  START/      Kb

TYPE AVAIL USED FREE USED LIMIT RESERVE PRI NAME
dev 8388608 0 8388608 0% 0 - 1 /dev/vg00/lvol2
reserve - 734216 -734216
memory 3129692 2753768 375924 88%

snmpd itself reports the same wrong number to our management software.

I can fully reproduce this on HP-UX 11.11, even with the exact same value (-2).

Thanks for the bug report!
We've fixed the problem in the 5.4.x code branch
and the main development tree, so it should be
fixed in future releases of the Net-SNMP package.
