Okay, I got the fix for this error message. I added a check to return NULL if some of the oid in the oid list is 0. So the process of the table is correct. As of the reason of the -D option preventing the error happen I have no explanation yet.
Thanks, Jim -----Original Message----- From: Jim Su [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 15, 2005 4:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Error: OID not increasing I have collected more data. The agent seems to fall into the situation to handle a bogus "lowest" oid list so it "walk" all the way from the "internet" level . And this seems to happen when there is only single row in the table. If there are multiple rows of data in that table this error won't happen. If there is a check added in the !exact condition to by pass this bogus oid list. The chance is the agent won't fall into the endless loop and this error. If the above is correct I still don't know why the -D option is "helping" to by pass this bogus oid list. #### The following is from MG-SOFT out put ### 1: geExporterIpAddr.192.168.0.3 (ipaddress) 192.168.0.3 2: internet.0.1075499343.0.0.0.0.1076636966.1077845576.0.3221218296.1076656620.1077845576.0.3221218232 (ipaddress) 192.168.0.3 3: sysDescr.0 (octet string) Linux A6000 2.4.31-ATM.1 #5 SMP Tue Jun 21 11:46:41 CST 2005 i686 [4C.69.6E.75.78.20.41.54.4D.2D.36.30.30.30.20.32.2E.34.2E.33.31.2D.41.54.4D.2E.31.20.23.35.20.53.4D.50.20.54.75.65.20.4A.75.6E.20.32.31.20.31.31.3A.34.36.3A.34.31.20.43.53.54.20.32.30.30.35.20.69.36.38.36 (hex)] 4: sysObjectID.0 (object identifier) ge6167 5: sysUpTime.0 (timeticks) 0 days 00h:59m:09s.21th (354921) 6: sysContact.0 (octet string) [EMAIL PROTECTED] .com [74.69.6D.40.67.65.6E.69.65.6E.72.6D.2E.63.6F.6D (hex)] 7: sysName.0 (octet string) A-6000 [41.54.4D.2D.36.30.30.30 (hex)] 8: sysLocation.0 (octet string) Unknown [55.6E.6B.6E.6F.77.6E (hex)] 9: sysORLastChange.0 (timeticks) 0 days 00h:00m:00s.00th (0) ........ ... ....
