[error] read-function of plugin 'snmp-QNAP-collectd' failed

[kevinstsauveur]

First of all thanks a lot for this good repo. It's verry well explained!

Problem

I have an error with qnap-collectd with the snmp. [2020-07-27 20:40:04] [error] snmp plugin: host QNAP-collectd: snmp_sess_synch_response failed: Timeout [2020-07-27 20:40:04] [notice] read-function of plugin 'snmp-QNAP-collectd' failed. Will suspend it for 60.000 seconds. [2020-07-27 20:41:04] [error] snmp plugin: host QNAP-collectd: snmp_sess_synch_response failed: Timeout [2020-07-27 20:41:04] [notice] read-function of plugin'snmp-QNAP-collectd' failed. Will suspend it for 120.000 seconds.

Of my knowledge, the snmp services were not activated before the installation. Here's the settings:

Impact This error caused the plugin to stop. Therefore I had no statistics sync.

Temporary fix

To solve this problem I have edited the qnap-collectd/collectd.conf.d/sample.conf and removed the LoadPlugin snmp. Now I have some information but not all (No temperature, No fans data) probably caused by the snmp.

Solution:

After reading your instruction again I spotted that you made a clear instruction in your Prerequisites about

Enable SNMPv2 on your QNAP with the default Community "snmp-collectd" and Trap address "[YOURNASIP]"

My bad for that (I'm probably more blaming language difference). This completely solve the issue.

Suggestion:

Do you know how make Docker container start automatically on system boot? It should be added in the readme!

Thanks! Keep up the good work!

Good Suggestion! I just added the restart policy to the default docker-compose. To enable it follow the update instructions in the readme.

Keep up the structured error reporting, It's appreciated :)
