Error: Data publisher not found or not implemented when processing request

I am seeing lots of these errors in the logs on my v11.5.2 box: 

err mcpd[8759]: 0107167d:3: Data publisher not found or not implemented when processing request (unknown request), tag (6589)

I have found an known issue ID 521617, which relates to vCMP (which I am not using).

Has anyone else seen these errors?

Just wondering if it is a known issue before I open a support case

    I advise you to open a support case. the ID you're referring to is for a similar but not same error.

    I'm also seeing these on my 11.5.3 boxes - can you let me know the outcome of the case you opened with F5?

    SNMP polling is the cause. The problem is that they have two SNMP OIDs for blade chassis systems that don't apply, and it triggers that error. I'm not sure why this wasn't posted to the SOL article or they didn't bother to remove it with the latest hotfix, but to fix it, modify /config/snmp/snmpd.conf and create a custom view with exclusions for the two bad OIDs. Note that once you do this, changing SNMP via the GUI will overwrite it, so make your edits in the conf file from now on or be prepared to re-add this afterward. (The comments on top of the file warn you that it is automated, but it will NOT change unless you edit the SNMP config via the GUI or reboot the system. Mine has been in place like this for a year now with no problems.) Restart snmpd when you are done. (type: _bigstart restart snmpd_)

    Here's my config with generic values. You can copy and paste this to the very bottom of the file and modify the community and user strings as needed.
