After Wes mentioned VACM, I tried to exclude the OIDs that I thought to be source of the problem from being polled via SNMP. However, it didn't solve the problem. Not active polling by another host via SNMP creates the load spikes, but net-snmpd itself. It just needs to run and the load goes up through the roof. I now use munin as an alternative monitoring solution. > Cheers, > > Timo Best, Timo -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFNP/jxfg746kcGBOwRAh2WAJ4/OuVc0jpM5+5bP8mH4yVCBXdvWQCgrpZd RWILdSboTsziZAsjYBSaJnE= =r2iK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
